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

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

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:
IgnoreCase Case and accent insensitive search (ignores uppercase and lowercase differences).
WholeWord Search for the whole word (enclosed in punctuation characters or in space characters).

By default, the search is case-sensitive: 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.
