Default Replace paragraph-marks (line-breaks) in tables with a character-string

I've got several documents that contain tables and am looking for a way to replace all the paragraph-markers (line-breaks) in all tables with a specified character-string.



Any help will be greatly appreciated.

You could use code like:
Code:
Sub ProcessTables()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim Tbl As Table
With ActiveDocument
  For Each Tbl In .Tables
    With Tbl.Range.Find
      .ClearFormatting
      .Replacement.ClearFormatting
      .Forward = True
      .Wrap = wdFindStop
      .Format = False
      .MatchCase = False
      .MatchWholeWord = False
      .MatchWildcards = False
      .MatchSoundsLike = False
      .MatchAllWordForms = False
      .Text = "^p"
      .Replacement.Text = "???"
      .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
    End With
  Next
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
Simply change the '???' to whatever your replacement string should be.
