Hello! I have no idea what I'm doing when it comes to VBA codes, but I know that I need one now. I have a giant folder full of Word documents, and I need to find one specific word/phrase ("prompt," - with the word & the comma), highlight it, and do this across all documents in a selected folder. I've used the following VBA code for finding/replacing across multiple documents, but I wasn't sure how to edit it so that I can find/highlight across multiple documents. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated - thank you!
