How do I tell a word macro to search for a character string, and do x, y and
z. But if the character string is NOT found, go to the end of the sub? |

You can also use the Instr() function. It returns 0 if the string being
searched for is not found. Therefore
If Instr(string1, string2) = 0 Then ' string1 does not contain string2
Exit Sub
Else
'Do x, y and z
End If
--
Hope this helps.
