I still use an old word processor because it has wild card find/replace
options that I can't seem to duplicate in Word.
Example:
in this other wp, I can find: ^R^+ replace ^R^+ and set options that will
change the format from, for ex., italic to bold or from no formatting to
italic plus bold. The string in the example consists of anything following a
Return until & incl. a colon. The options allow me to specify the current
format - font/attribute etc. - and what I want the new format to be..
In other words, I want to change the formatting for strings that may contain
a variety of different characters but are bounded by a specific start and a
specific end. (Actually, this wp's find/replace w/ options lets me build
rather complex combinations of wildcards to which formatting changes may be
applied.)
I have been unable to figure out any way to do this in any version of Word.
