Search for text and replace with fields?

[Rolf Barbakken]

We need to search through many documents and replace certain codes with
fields. Is this possible through standard Word 2003?

If not, is it possible to make a macro for this? Anything already done?

See the article "Find & ReplaceAll on a batch of documents in the same
folder" at:

Check out the .Add function for Fields to get the syntax for adding a field
to a document. You will need to incorporate that into the code in the macro
in the above article.
