Greetings group
I desire to do a search and replace on a word document where by the
soft line breaks inserted automaticaly by WORD are replaced with hard (
or manual ) linebreaks.
Many thanks for assistance
DavidH
 
Goto to the Replace in the Edit Menu

Edit > Replace

At the bottom of the Find and Replace click the MORE options

Then click the Special Button and there you will find your hard returns.

Good Luck,
Mike
 
Thanks Mike,
It is not the hard returns that I want to find.
I want to find the soft returns that Word inserts as it wraps a line.
Then i want to replace them with hard returns.
many thanks DavidH
 
Thanks Stefan
for the adivce.
The underlying problem that I have is that I am merging to e-mail and
in the process creating 40-100 individual e-mails.
Formating as received in the recipients mailbox tends to get rather
messed up.
If I could insert hard carriage returns before the merge then that
problem would be solved.
I used Eudora for my mail.
best wishes
and thanks for the contact
