I need help with a Macro that will allow me to replace text throughout a document. There are several text areas that need replacing... each with different 'place holder' text and requiring different text to be inserted. Currently I have four such place holders. For example:1. *COMPANY* is replaced with the Company Name2. *ADDRESS* is replaced with the Address3. *CONTACT* is replaced with the Customers Name... etc.
I can't get this to work with the built-in record Macro function as it will not record the 'Replace Text' function in Corel. I cannot use Mail Merge as I need to pause between each set of changes (all text changes can be made at once) but I need to change colors and art prior to printing.
Does anyone know how I can do this?I am willing to pay for assistance.
thanks... Charles
does this help you?

It does not help as far as I can tell... but, thanks for the link.
We will be making several hundred changes to the templates and I need some sort of GUI interface to allow an operator to make the changes without having to modify the VBA for each change.
My VB knowledge is very limited and I need some pretty rudimentary pointers (or a paid expert who can provide a finished solution) on how to make this work... I am no VB expert by any means.
We are trying to automate for the purpose of printing some 'Micro Postcards' for marketing purposes and need something that is quick and easy to use.
