The title explains it, I think. If not, what I wanted to know is if there is some sort of tool or command I can use to make everything between quotation marks bold in word or google docs. Please ignore the tags, they are there because I am bored... well, even this thread was made cause I am bored.
I'd use regular expressions for this... Match: \"(.*?)\" Replace: \"\<b\>$1\</b\>\" The only problem is that this solution won't work in word. It might work in google docs, but yeah...that replace is how you would bold in HTML... Although you might be able to create a macro in Word's VBA that will use the Match to find eligible selections, then you would do a bold command on that selection.
word has a regex equivalent but i cant get it to match " or ' in anyway..... the syntax should be (with checked placeholder) search: '*' or '[!']' replace with: ^& and under format klick 'symbol' then bolt PS nop its confirmed even a [!"] or [!'] matches a " or ' PPS got it to work.. copy the starting ' and ending ' from your Text(word tends to replace the typed character) and replace the 's from the sample search: „*“ replace: ^& format > symbol > Bolt (last klicked field is replace)
