'Hi experts, I need your help please!
I have written a number of find and replace' macros in Word, but I need one
to interact with me and ask me every time whether or not I wish to replace
the word that has been found.
1. First, I want to run thru a word document and for every instance of "his"
ask me if I want to replace it with "her". Preferably the normal "Find and
Replace dialog box should open so I could just click on "Replace" or "Find
Next", but I can't work out how to make the box appear each time the macro
finds "his".
2. Also it would be nice if the dialog box were out of the way so I could
see the sentence in question. (but this isn't critical.)
3. Then I want to expand the macro to include a list of other words to run
the same steps - eg "him" to be replaced sometimes with "her", "mine" with
"ours" etc.
Any ideas, anyone, please?
