I have a list of several hundred names rendered as follows:
| BillPeterSmith |
| JohnJones |
| SuePritiPatel |
| PeterOswestryOgrovic |
| MarkClinton |
What I am trying to do is simply add spaces, in MS Word: Bill Peter Smith.
· I can locate caps at the beginning of words.
· I THINK I can locate any string of caps within the text (HellooOOOOoooo!)
· I seem unable to locate a single cap in the middle of a word.
I cannot replace a character found via a wildcard to itself. (For example, I may wish to multiply all numbers (single digits) in my text by ten - find: ^# replace ^#0) but wild cards cannot be used as replacements.
I WILL NOT MANUALLY REPEAT THE SAME OPERATION MULTIPLE TIMES, because the characters I am searching for and replacing are highly changeable,
As a better example, assume my text says something like
5PoundsSteak36PoundsPotatoes
And I want it to say
5 Pounds Steak
36 Pounds Potatoes
I cannot find any way to replace the wild card with the actual character find.
a. Consider
i. search >^#<
ii. replace >^p
iii. “1dog2cats3mice(blind)”
iv. dog
cats
mice(blind)
I don’t want to see that!
I want to see:
1 dog
2 cats
3 mice(blind)
Moreover I want to transform “10964Harris3768Lewis866001Benbecula” into
10964 Harris
3768 Lewis
866001 Benbecula
Remember THIS IS MS WORD.
There seem to be fixes which work with numbers which rely on loops and are practical because there are only 8 digits involved. 26 letters needs something more methodical.
