You don't need a macro for this. It can be done via Find/Replace. The real question, though, is whether you might have a series of period characters (i.e. '.') or an elipsis (i.e. '…')

hi,
in my document am having more than 200 tables and line items in a table will be followed by ..... and this dot ( . ) is not a fixed characters to replace manually. it is changes for every single line items in a table. some times having 9 dots , 13 dots, 15 dots, 21 dots and vice versa... my intention if there is more than one dot then dots should be removed and if there is a only single dot then it shouldnt be removed or it remains fixed usual. if this is automate by a macro, it will be more helpful to me.... |

If you want a macro solution, post a sample document that shows what your content actually shows as. The consecutive dots could be other things (spaces, ellipses or tab leaders) so we need to see what it is you want a solution to.

As per your other thread, a single wildcard Find/Replace could be used to remove all repeated '.' characters from a document, leaving just one '.' in their place. For example:
Find = [.]{2,} Replace = .
