Programatically insert page breaks ?

[mscertified]

I need to insert page breaks into my document wherever a certain character
string occurs in the document.
I also need to remove all the Word inserted page breaks where the document
goes over a certain number of lines.
How could I do this?

Why? Its a long story but this document was transferred from a mainframe
computer system that formats the document with EBCDIC carriage returns.

Remove page breaks first: search for ^m and replace with nothing. Then
search for your text string and replace with ^m.

I think your second search should replace with ^&^m or ^m^& depending on
whether the break goes before or after the text string.

Good point. I guess I assumed that he was using a dummy text string to
indicate where a page break should be.
