For Word documents, try:
Code:
Sub CollateDocumentData()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim strFolder As String, strFile As String, strDocNm As String, strTmp As String, strOut As String
Dim wdDoc As Document, i As Long: Const StrFnd As String = "storage,dry,spent,ISFSI,fuel"
strDocNm = ActiveDocument.FullName
strFolder = GetFolder: If strFolder = "" Then Exit Sub
strFile = Dir(strFolder & "\*.doc", vbNormal)
While strFile <> ""
If strFolder & "\" & strFile <> strDocNm Then
Set wdDoc = Documents.Open(FileName:=strFolder & "\" & strFile, AddToRecentFiles:=False, Visible:=False)
strTmp = ""
With wdDoc
With .Range.Find
.ClearFormatting
.Replacement.ClearFormatting
.Replacement.Text = ""
.Forward = True
.Wrap = wdFindContinue
.MatchCase = False
.MatchWholeWord = True
.MatchWildcards = False
.MatchSoundsLike = False
.MatchAllWordForms = False
For i = 0 To UBound(Split(StrFnd, ","))
.Text = Split(StrFnd, ",")(i)
.Execute
If .Found = True Then strTmp = strTmp & ", " & Split(StrFnd, ",")(i)
Next
End With
If strTmp <> "" Then strOut = strOut & vbCr & strFile & ": " & strTmp
.Close SaveChanges:=True
End With
End If
strFile = Dir()
Wend
Set wdDoc = Nothing
ActiveDocument.Range.Text = "The following matches were made:" & strOut
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Function GetFolder() As String
Dim oFolder As Object
GetFolder = ""
Set oFolder = CreateObject("Shell.Application").BrowseForFolder(0, "Choose a folder", 0)
If (Not oFolder Is Nothing) Then GetFolder = oFolder.Items.Item.Path
Set oFolder = Nothing
End Function
To do the same for pdfs, you could change:
strFile = Dir(strFolder & "\*.doc", vbNormal)
to:
strFile = Dir(strFolder & "\*.pdf", vbNormal)
