Find all email addresses in word document and delete

You should be able to use a wildcard Find/Replace, where:
Find = <[0-9A-Za-z.]{1,}\@[!. ]{1,}.*>

Replace = nothing
No code required. Of course, if you're doing this regularly, simply record the above as a macro.

Hi Paul

Ok thanks for that. it works like a dream and clears all the email addresses out. Brilliant.

Just A FYI - It did miss one email address which has an underscore in it , but I was able to remove it manually. It only removed the text after the underscore.

Best Wishes

Colin
