Well, you get the idea.Writers who use APA Style may use the automatic headings function of their word-processing program to create headings.
For instance, it wouldn't be a good idea to do a search for just "one" because that would match things like "done" or "tone" or "loner" or.
It typically wouldn't be a problem with species names, but you'll want to make sure that each line in the text file is unique enough that you don't get partial words affected in the document. (You can store it someplace else or name it something else, but in that case, you would need to change the line of code to reflect the changes.) After each line is read from the text file, Find and Replace is used to make sure that the text is changed to italic. This macro relies on the text file named species.txt, stored in the root directory of the C: drive.
Your macro could then open the file, read each line, and change all instances of that species to italic in your document. Basically, you could create a plain text file (using a program such as Notepad) that would contain a single species name on each line. Fortunately, such a macro would not be that complex. The downside, of course, is that each tool comes with its own learning curve that you'll need to go through in order to get it to do what you want.Īnother approach is to create your own macro to perform the task. These are powerful tools, and you can even get FRedit for free. Two of them suggested by WordTips readers include the following: There are multiple add-on tools you could get that would perform this particular task. Scott wonders if there is a way to use a list of terms (perhaps in a text file) and have Word make sure that each word in the list is shown in the document in italic. Scott has a need to make sure that all of these species names are italicized.
In the manuscripts he works with there are many technical terms, such as names of various species of insects or animals.
