    Hi,

    I need to split the number of bits in Word. For example, 1000000 => 1 000 000, 00. I don't found standart feature. But i found this code:     

     Dim SelectionStart As Long
      Dim SelectionEnd As Long
      SelectionStart = Selection.Start
      SelectionEnd = Selection.End
      Selection.EndKey wdStory, wdMove
      With Selection.Find
        .Text = "[0-9]{4;}"
        .MatchWildcards = True
        .Forward = False
        While .Execute
          If Not .Parent.Previous Is Nothing Then
            If .Parent.Previous.Text <> "," Then
              .Parent.Text = FormatNumber(CDbl(.Parent.Text), 2, GroupDigits:=vbTrue)
              Selection.Collapse wdCollapseStart
            End If
          Else
            .Parent.Text = FormatNumber(CDbl(.Parent.Text), 2, GroupDigits:=vbTrue)
          End If
        Wend
          Selection.SetRange SelectionStart, SelectionEnd

    It's not bad. And I also want to add to this code at the bottom: "ActiveDocument.SaveAs" - no problem.

    Then, i enter my number, click on the button, which contain this code, number has transformed. SaveDialog has also opend, then click "save" and have  "Run-time error: 4198. Command error".Then click "Debug", file closed and appear on my Desktop. 

    Can you tell me,  what is cuase of this problem, how to hide this Error???

    Thank you for reply :)

    The following works fine for me:

    Sub Demo()
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
    Dim StrPath As String
    StrPath = "C:\Users\" & Environ("Username") & "\Documents\"
    With ActiveDocument
      With .Range
        With .Find
          .ClearFormatting
          .Replacement.ClearFormatting
          .Text = "<[0-9]{4;}>"
          .Replacement.Text = ""
          .Forward = True
          .Wrap = wdFindStop
          .Format = False
          .MatchWildcards = True
          .Execute
        End With
        Do While .Find.Found
          .Text = Replace(Format(.Text, "#,##0"), ",", " ") & ",00"
          .Collapse wdCollapseEnd
          .Find.Execute
        Loop
      End With
      .SaveAs FileName:=StrPath & "MyFile.docx", FileFormat:=wdFormatXMLDocument
    End With
    Application.ScreenUpdating = True
    End Sub

    The new file's name is 'MyFile.docx'.

    Hi Ivan,

    Tried your code and it seems to work just fine with one exception. I don't know which version you are using but i tried Word 2010. That doesn't have ActiveDocument.SaveAs but ActiveDocument.SaveAs2

    Althought you should have seen that i guess because otherwise it would not have compiled. When you choose SaveAs in the dialog do you save the document as .docm? because that might cause the issue.
