Hi John

I tried your suggestion but it did not work the way I needed. I found that once the replace all was activated and I started checking the sentences I could not take one sentence and reverse the procedure if I found the wording to be correct. I had to delete the replaced word completely and retype it in, which makes the job on checking a novel of approximately 200,000 words a longer process than it's worth.
