Bierkonig · 01-09-2009, 06:57 PM

Hello,

In the absence of anyone ready to tackle my problem using VBA, I realize I don't really need to put the A B text into new headers, so perhaps this can be solved just using features of Word's find/replace that I don't yet understand. Thus, can anyone tell me how to turn

section break (next page)
A
B
text

into

section break (next page)
A B

text

Again, A and B change several hundred times throughout the document . Sometimes A is word or several words and B is a page number, sometimes it's the reverse, **the only this that is consistent is that A and B are separated by a single hard return and are the first two lines after each section break**.

thank you!
