Word, F&R: format ((any character string)) as hidden

[PeterB]

MS Word: Find and Replace

What sequence of operators is used to find any string (character and/or
numeral) in double brackets and to mark this as hidden text, including the
double brackets.

Thanks

Hi Peter,

Sub Testjji()
Dim rTmp As Range
Set rTmp = ActiveDocument.Range
With rTmp.Find
.Text = "\[\[(*)\]\]"
.Replacement.Text = "[[\1]]"
.MatchWildcards = True
.Replacement.Font.Hidden = True
.Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
End With
End Sub
