Why would you want to use an Excel workbook, if all you're doing is changing the font? You would only need an Excel workbook if you're changing the actual characters or whole strings to something else. Even then, you don't necessarily need to use Excel or an external file; For changes that are always the same, it's possible to encode the Find & Replace strings into the actual code.

You need to say clearly what it is you're trying to achieve. So far, your posts have been quite inconsistent about that.

dear
yes sure i want to replace the character depend on font too
example: i've file most of its text writen by times-new-roman, all i need make excel sheet contain find text and its replacement
and change any character its font times-new-roman to tahoma as its replacement in excel
in breef font converting from text to another
wish i help to explain the task

This doesn't make it any clearer, especially as to why you're so keen to involve Excel.

As I have already said, twice now, if all you're doing is changing the font for some (or all) characters from Times New Roman to Tahoma, you don't need anything more than the macro I posted in post #6. Indeed, if you're doing this for a whole document, simply change the Style definitions.
