Syntax

<Word Processing control>.Replace(<Text to replace> , <Replacement text> [, <Options>])

<Word Processing control>: Control name

Name of the Word Processing control to use.

<Text to replace>: Character string (with quotes)

Text to find and to replace in the document. If this parameter corresponds to an empty string (""), the document will not be modified.

<Replacement text>: Character string (with quotes)

Character string that will replace <Text to replace>. If this parameter corresponds to an empty string (""), all the occurrences of <Text to replace> will be deleted

<Options>: Optional constant (or combination of constants)

Search options for the text to replace:
WholeWord Search for the whole word (enclosed in punctuation characters or in space characters).
IgnoreCase Search while ignoring the case (lowercase/uppercase characters) and the accented characters.

The search is case sensitive by default: the searched text and the text to find must have the same case. To perform a search while ignoring the case, use the IgnoreCase constant.
