Pat,

Good to see that I wasn't the only one put off by the reply. A simple
"Thanks," followed by his additional questions would have made a difference.

G'Day Neil,

There is an expectation that some effort is required to solve problems and
that, after direction and information, the OWNER of the problem will make
that effort.

Reading the Macro, it is quite clear that it performs two successive
Search
and Replace operations:
Edit>Replace
More (button)
Use Wildcards (CHECK the box)
Search Text: "([.\!\?]) ([A-Z])" (Leave out the quotes)
Replacement Text: "\1 \2"
Replace All (button)
Search Text: "([.\!\?]) {3,}([A-Z])"
Replacement Text: "\1 \2"
Replace All (button)
Cancel (button)

YOU could actually DO this yourself.

Now! I have made an effort to encourage YOU to make an effort!

I am using Word 2007. I have a long word document, that has, sometimes 1,
2,
or 3 spaces between sentences. The document is complete, including
spelling
and grammer, except for the spaces between sentences.

I know under Word 2007, under the grammer settings, you can say you want
2
spaces between each sentence. I have that feature checked as two spaces,
and
I have unchecked each other grammer check feature.

How can I have the document changed so that there are two spaces between
each sentence? When I run the grammer and spelling checker, it tries to
correct each spelling and grammer error it finds. However, I only want
it to
change the spacing, and nothing else. It would take me forever to click
the
ignore button on each error it finds. Any suggestions?
