Sorry, I should have been more specific. How are the paragraph symbols, tabs etc coded in a macro? (I guess not as ^p, ^t etc).

And if you use the paragraph symbol code, will the VBA macro then treat that selection as sentence?

Thanks

Indeed. Let's start with you telling use what you're trying to achieve.

Just interested in learning how to use (maybe even write sometime) macros. Usually try to learn by modding something already written to do something else, so when I saw the macro you wrote for tjf, I thought it might be useful to play around with (only a dozen or so lines to understand) and renumber sentences by looking for the .¶ for instance, so as to avoid the . occurring as decimal points etc in your example sentence. So, purely a learning exercise.
