Emoto wondered: <<I have several hundred Word docs that need certain
text strings replaced. They also need a graphic on the front page and
in the footers replaced... Anyone have a good multi-file find and
replace that can be used on everything at once?>>

Yup: MegaReplacer (http://www.editorium.com/14843.htm). People who
need it bad swear by it -- which is a nice change from swearing at
Word. <g>
