How to find *,@,#,$,&,^ ??????
I need to find and replace certain special cherecters like
*,@,#,$,&,%,^ etc and replace them with some reguler text. The problem is that being special cherector VBA acts as if these are commands or wild cherecters (like find vba.* will find allfiles with vba with any extension) Any workaround? Please, I need it badly. Regards, |
