![]()
I would like to replace some keywords using wildcards, while also capturing the wildcard group and applying bold formatting to the matches. I have two codes so far, but neither one accomplishes both requirements.
The first code captures the group but does not set the bold formatting: Code:
With Selection.Find .Text = "(wildcard_pattern_here)" .Replacement.Text = "original text: \1" .Replacement.Font.Bold = True .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = False .MatchCase = True .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchWildcards = True .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchAllWordForms = False End With Selection.Find.Execute replace:=wdReplaceAll Code:
With Selection.Find .Text = "(wildcard_pattern_here)" .Replacement.Text = "original text: \1" .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = False .MatchCase = True .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchWildcards = True .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchAllWordForms = False Do While .Execute Selection.Font.Bold = True Selection.TypeText Text:=.Replacement.Text Loop End With Thank you!
