Hello and Help!
I am exporting an .xml file from Word Press to Word that brings tags along with it. They aren't really html tags they are event tags from my calendar plug-in. I can use Find/Replace but there are 26 tags to remove so I am trying to create a macro to do this for me and am having no luck. Here's what an entry looks like. There must be an easy way to do a macro or find/replace to take out everything inside and including the <>? <event> <organizer>ACC</organizer> <organizer-phone>203-555-1212</organizer-phone> <organizer-website>http://waterburyregionarts.com</organizer-website> <organizer-email>info@ waterburyregionarts.com </organizer-email> <venue>AACC</venue> <address>123 Main Street South Southbury,CT 06488</address> <phone>203-555-1212</phone> <website>http://waterburyregionarts.com</website> <title>Acrylic Pet Portraits</title> <content>Acrylic Pet Portraits</content> <eventdate>Sep. 9, 16, 23, 30: 10 am - 12 pm</eventdate> <eventcost>130.00</eventcost> </event> Thanks in advance! I'm desperate. |

A simple wildcard Find/Replace operation should do the job:
Find What: \<*\> Leave the Replace With box empty. Click on Replace All. |
