Default Search and Replace Problem

I am writing a novel and in the past I created a macro I called 'slice'.


What this macro did was to search and replace any periods found with a period and a pargraph. For editing it was very effective as I had to deal with each sentance and rebuild the paragraphs. In the process I would spot any grammical errors and was able to improve the overall text quality.


I have Office365 and the search and replace is not working. I don't want to insert the paragraph symbol which is what is happeing. What I would like is:


This is some test text. The greated novel of all time is being completed


Would be after the macro runs



This is some test text.


The greated novel of all time is being completed.


then I would be using the delete key like crazy as well as making other changes to rebuild the paragraphs.
