Macro for automatic reference detection and mark up

Writer243 · #1 06-19-2023, 06:45 AM

Hi VBA forum,

I am writing a book within a legal field and have a lot of cases referenced in my text. I know I could go through all 600+ pages and mark each case for the index manually but I would prefer to automate the process.

Is there any way to make Word identify the most common case formats? (the most common are on the basis of U YYYY.XXX ending with either Ø, V or H, for example U 1994.237 H)

And in addition, is there any way to make Word mark such entries as an index word automatically?
