Modifying RTF File in MS Word 2007

[Nickster]

I'm editing several RTF ebooks. I need to reformat by executing a fixed sequence of changes to the total file. For example.

Change all "TAB" characters to null
then
Change all "-" characters to null
then


Change all "PARAGRAPH" character + one SPACE to "~"
etc.

I'm new to VBA, but experienced in Xbase programming. I've reviewed different examples but remain confused. An example for executing a set of fixed sequence changes would be most appreciated.

Please ignore post. Figured out how to use Macro record and solved problem.

This can all be done via two wildcard Find/Replace executions:
1. Find = [^t\-]
Replace = nothing
2. Find = ^13^32
Replace = ~
The equivalent macro would be:

Sub Demo()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
With ActiveDocument.Range
  With .Find
    .ClearFormatting
    .Replacement.ClearFormatting
    .Format = False
    .Forward = True
    .Wrap = wdFindContinue
    .MatchWildcards = True
    .Text = "[^t\-]"
    .Replacement.Text = ""
    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
    .Text = "^13^32"
    .Replacement.Text = "~"
    .Execute Replace:=wdReplaceAll
  End With
End With
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
