If there is a dependable pattern, such as "RQD followed by three
digits," then you can write your macro to search for hidden occurrences
of that string, only.

Find What: Replace With:

RQD^#^#^#
[Hidden] [Not Hidden]

(You don't even *have* to change it back, if you save before the macro
runs and close the file as soon as it's printed.)

If the pattern is "RQD followed by up to three digits," use a series of
three F-&-R passes:

Find What: Replace With:

1) RQD^#^#^#
[Hidden] [Not Hidden]

2) RQD^#^#
[Hidden] [Not Hidden]

3) RQD^#
[Hidden] [Not Hidden]

(Be sure you do it in the order shown.)

If the pattern is "three letters followed by up to three digits," use
"^$^$^$" (withouth the quotation marks, of course) instead of "RQD."

Hope this helps!
