Find and Replace macro

[Juan]

Hi everyone,

I have a very simple macro that all it does is search and replace for text
in the document. The problem is that it doesn´t find nor replace the text
inside footers and headers. However, if I use Find and Replace from the Edit
menu... works ok. It's weird, since I irecorded the macro using that menu.

Any ideas?

Thanks, from Spain.

document including Headers, Footers, Textboxes, etc.” at:

Doug,

traslation to C# was easy, that part is not that hard for me. That's why I
ask stuff that I can´t figure out myself in the vba group, because normally
is very easy to put in C#.

It's already working like a charm.... thanks again for the tip.
