Find and Replace dialog box

[Island Girl]

I know that somewhere in this group you have told us how to clear the Find
and Replace dialog box, but I can't find it. Every time I go into mine, the
last search info is still in it.

Could you please tell me one more time? Thanks for all you do!!!

I don't know of any way to "clear" it except to restart Word. And you can't
change the settings without running another Find.

You could use a macro which will reset the display, but not remove old
searches.

Sub ClearReplace()
With Selection.Find
.ClearFormatting
.Replacement.ClearFormatting
.Text = ""
.Replacement.Text = ""
.Forward = True
.MatchWildcards = False
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.MatchWholeWord = False
.MatchSoundsLike = False
.MatchAllWordForms = False
.Format = False
.MatchCase = False
.Execute
End With
End Sub
