Hello, and thank you for the answers so far. The documents can be huge, as in 4-5000 pages, and there are upto 7*5000 words that needs to be replaced. (It is as you have pointed out a translation of languages, but for a very speicalised branch of patents. Therefore there are no translaters that know most of these words. They will be changed, and thereafter, someone might spend a few weeks/months getting it correct.)
I don't really think changing it to rtf is a sollution. The formating is very important. The company do have Word Macros today that do the job. But, as you might imagine, it is very hard to maintain and got lots of 'issues'. It started out with a few words 6-7 years ago, and have grown. Will there be a increase in speed if I pull out all the text, run it thru regex and thereafter do a Word Search and Replace of those words that Regex finds, instead of doing a complete Search and Replace in Word? Thanks in advance. -- This email has been scanned for viruses & spam by Decna as - www.decna.no Denne e-posten er sjekket for virus & spam av Decna as - www.decna.no _______________________________________________ Python-win32 mailing list Python-win32@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
