Default multi-use text checker

Good day everyone.



Im currently having trouble creating some sort of text checker.

In order to explain the problem, I'll explain how the program is supposed to work.

We'll need the program to check the document for certain words or word combinations (whereas the document consists of various articles)

After this, it will need to replace the matched result for some other word, while using Track Changes, so that i can later decide whether or not I'd like to keep the changes

Also, the words I need to find need to be easily accessed and changed (as well as their corresponding "replacement") Because I will not be the only one using this document, and im pretty sure some of the others are very much capable of breaking code, I'd rather create the word array through some sort of Userform.

Momentarily, I've been able to create a set array of words, find 'em, and make them a certain colour. Still a lot of manual checking needed...

I'm not really sure I'm explaining it properly. But feel free to ask for clarification if not so.

Help is most welcome!

regards,

-Sok

Hey Greg,

Great job!

However, I need a certain way of replacing words, I need it to perform the replacement while on "Track Changes"

any help on that?

Also, I dont wish to copy the thing, just use some code to make my own application.

thanks in advance.

-Sok
