Is it possible to loop a find and replace array?

Paul thanks for the reply. What the heck is "^0013"? It still isn't changing tab return to return.

That's the ASCII value for a CR - some MS Word special code (like ^p, and ^t) aren't recognized using wildcards

I wasn't sure about how to interpret some of the F&R's you wanted, so I sort of guessed at the {2,}, but I figured you could sort it out

'space'{2,} means 'two or more spaces'
'space'{2,5} means 'two to five spaces'

These constructs 'sort of' a carry over from Regular Expressions - online help is pretty good

BTW, IMHO it's worth your while to become a little familiar with MS Word's F&R wildcard option, since I've found that it is 1) powerful, and 2) can greatly simplify your macros
