Using clipboard contents in FIND prompt.

Author	Message
Dan Johnso #1 / 2	Using clipboard contents in FIND prompt. I am attempting to create a macro that uses the find command to search through a document. How can I search through the document using the contents of the clipboard? In the example below I would like to be able to replace S104D5BM with whatever happens to be on the clipboard at the time. With Selection.Find .Text = "S104D5BM" .Replacement.Text = "" .Forward = True .Wrap = wdFindContinue .Format = False .MatchCase = False .MatchWholeWord = False .MatchWildcards = False .MatchSoundsLike = False .MatchAllWordForms = False Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
