I'm trying to write a macro in Word that will make 2 spaces into 1 space after a punctuation and formatting section, like this, where the 23-29 will superscripted and be links to references at the end of the document.



dultricies.23-29 Purus

I would like the macro to identify the two spaces after the superscript and make it 1 space.

Thanks,

Chris

I tried creating the macro to identify 2 spaces and make it 1 space - that worked. But when I tried to create a macro using wildcard characters or special formatting (superscript), I expected Word to locate the instance and make it one space, but it did not.

Are there other instances of double spaces in the document that you want to stay with double spaces?

Show us the macro you created and attach a sample document that shows instances of what needs to be found (and not found)
