    Each sentence in new line

    Hi,

    I have a word document and I want to put each sentence in a new line (insert a carriage return after the .)

    I have tried several options, but seem to be getting nowhere. I would be grateful if someone could guide me on this. The vba code should be able to distinguish between a full stop and a decimal point. One way to distinguish is that a period is followed by a space. I modified the code on another post and it works for full stops, but there are other separators like ; or :

    How can I modify the code to work for all the separators like period, colon, semi colon, etc.

    [VBA]Option Explicit

    Sub FindWordCopySentence()
    Dim appExcel As Object
    Dim objSheet As Object
    Dim t As String
    Dim aRange As Range
    Dim intRowCount As Integer
    intRowCount = 1
    t = InputBox("Enter the filename:")
    Set aRange = ActiveDocument.Range

    With aRange.Find
    Do
    .Text = ". " ' the word I am looking for
    .Execute
    If .Found Then
    aRange.Expand Unit:=wdSentence
    aRange.Copy
    aRange.Collapse wdCollapseEnd
    If objSheet Is Nothing Then
    Set appExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
    'Change the file path to match the location of your test.xls
    Set objSheet = appExcel.workbooks.Open("C:\temp\" & t & ".xlsx").Sheets("Sheet1")
    intRowCount = 1
    End If
    objSheet.Cells(intRowCount, 1).Select
    objSheet.Paste
    intRowCount = intRowCount + 1
    End If
    Loop While .Found
    End With
    If Not objSheet Is Nothing Then
    appExcel.workbooks(1).Close True
    appExcel.Quit
    Set objSheet = Nothing
    Set appExcel = Nothing
    End If
    Set aRange = Nothing
    End Sub[/VBA]

    Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    Regards,
