Welcome to the forum. Since this is your first post you're probably not aware of the fact that people will be a lot more willing to help if you show them what you have tried so far.

As for the current issue you can use the Find method of the Range object to find and replace text.

Hi,

Enclosed is a nice example that I made.

This example seaches in a report

It finds all instances of the word LAMBDA (one each time) and replaces it with the letter 'l' and then it changes the font of the letter to symbol

So the effect is to change each 'LAMBDA' in the file to greek alphabet 'l' or the lambda symbol

The neat thing here is that the range automatically changes from the entire doc to the found string - which I found by trial and error...

Enclosed are both a vi in 2010 and a screenshot

Enjoy,

Nitzan
