Altering font in word documents en mass?

[jatkinson]

My firm will shortly be going through a rebranding exercise from which it is likely that we will be changing our standard font. At present we have over a thousand word documents that are used as templates to generate letters.

I know hardly anything about scripting, VBA or otherwise but wondered if there was a way to automate the opening, changing, saving and closing of a range of word documents automatically instead of an individual having to open and change all in turn.

Any ideas or pointers?

Cheers
