Hi all,
Is there a way to search for two consecutive words that are set in title case (i.e., first letter is capitalized and remaining letters are lowercase)? I know [A-Z] will find a capital letter, but not sure how to define two strings beginning with a capital letter. |

I should say that my current attempt is
[A-Z][a-z] [A-Z][a-z] But it only seems to be finding word pairs that start after a punctuation mark. |

Provided both words have more than one letter, a wildcard Find with:
Find = <[A-Z][! ]@ [A-Z][! ]@> should do.

That's great Paul, thanks. Would it also be possible to look for the same thing, but with a space after the second word? (this would help me reduce the found instances and focus on what I'm looking for).
I tried adding the space after the second @ but it did not seem to register. |

Simply add a space character after the >
