I am looking to change all instances of a word or phrase in a document, I am
doing a doc, and the name of a procedure has changed, and I would like to be
able to just change all of these words to something else.

Is this possible? Also is this possible with a phrase?

Is there some reason you cannot use the replace function CTRL+H ?

Use the Replace function under Edit on the main menu. This can do a phrase if
the text is exactly the same.
Hope this helps

Thanks Guys.

Works a treat. I knew of some way, but had never used it before.
