I need to convert a document with one space after each period with two spaces.

I thought a wild card search like this would work:

Find: (<*>.) (<*>)
Replace: \1 \2

(If it's not plainly visible, find searches for a word that ends in a period with one space and the word following. Replace is the first parentheses, two spaces, then the second parentheses.

Track changes are on, and must be.

Although <*> finds single words, my find string finds a string of words. The replace string, instead of putting two spaces between the two arguments, puts two spaces AFTER the second argument, and concatenates the first and second string.

For example:

"Mary had a little lamb. Its fleece was white as snow."

becomes:

"Mary had a little lamb.Its fleece was white as snow."

It appears to work fine when Track Changes are off, so I'm assuming this is a bug associated with Track changes.

Any workarounds?

Thanks
