RE: Separating a word file using executable script

Hi Anand

I'm not good with VB at all. I'm very very new so your guidance will be
appreciated.
The application number is a combination of letters and numbers.
Some examples are: MED00001, PU010001, PF010004, PU010023.

My report starts with the following:

Application number: PU010023
(There is two lines between the application number and the rest of the data)
Title: This is the title
Inventor: inventors are listed
Counsel:Name of counsel
Summary: this is the summary
(There is more but this is how it sort of looks like)

Thanks for your help
