>Bob, the problem (which is not obvious at all) is that your macro uses the double quotes. In NWP this causes interpolation, so the the "\." is turned into a '.' before the Find/Replace is executed, which as you might notice yourself is going to be a disaster for your macro. If you replace the double quotes with single quotes that should solve the problem.

Thank you very, very much! This should solve many problems for me.
