Need Wild Card for Deleting Square Brackets with Differing Numbers inside

[CrossReach]

Is there a way to use wild cards to delete all the square brackets in a document?



They go from [p. 1] to [p. 436]

If you want to get rid of all brackets in a document, you can do it in two steps without wildcards: (1) Replace All [ with nothing and then (2) Replace All ] with nothing.

Sorry, I should have been clearer I want the brackets and their contents deleted without having to go theough them manually.

Indeed, getting rid of the contents as well would require a wildcard find & replace. See Paul's reply.

Or in one step using wildcards:
Find = [\[\]]
Replace = nothing

[macropod]

In that case, using wildcards:
Find = \[*\]
Replace = nothing

That did it. Like magic. Obrigado senhors!
