Find/Replace Wildcard Needed-Bold & Highlight

rsrasc · #3 11-11-2014, 03:07 PM

Good point, and I agreed. Not trying to get "free" advise without me doing my homework or putting a good effort. I do.

Before posting anything, I spent a good amount of hours searching the net and your site for answers.

Unfortunately, I don't have the necessary skills to come out sometimes with a workable code or solution.

Yesterday, you gave me a workable find/replace code; I try to modify it for something else--spent more than two hours trying to find a solution but couldn't do it.

Anyway, please accept my apologies, and as always I thank you for your valuable cooperation.

Here is a sample code I found on the web so I can bold what I want. Still working on the color issue.

Sincerely

PHP Code:


			
Sub BoldText()

'

Application.ScreenUpdating = False

With ActiveDocument.Range

  With .Find

    .ClearFormatting

    .Replacement.ClearFormatting

    .Forward = True

    .Wrap = wdFindContinue

    .Format = False

    .MatchWildcards = True

    .Text = "Answer: A"

    .Replacement.Text = ""

    .Replacement.Font.Bold = True

    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll

    .Text = "Answer: B"

    .Replacement.Text = ""

    .Replacement.Font.Bold = True

    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll

    .Text = "Answer: C"

    .Replacement.Text = ""

    .Replacement.Font.Bold = True

    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll

    .Text = "Answer: D"

    .Replacement.Text = ""

    .Replacement.Font.Bold = True

    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll

    .Forward = True

    .Wrap = wdFindContinue

    .MatchWholeWord = True

    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll

   End With

End With

Application.ScreenUpdating = True

End Sub
