VBA macro 1

[DotNetGnat]

Hi Guys,

i wrote a VBA macro that does "find and replace" in the word document...i mean when i run the macro, i have this predefined array of acronym words that are to be replaced with the actual definitions...

so macro searches through all the text on the word document and if it finds any acronymn it replaces it with its definition...ok everything works fine...

but i have some word documents that i have textboxes on them...and these textboxes have text in it and my find and replace function ignores the text inside the textbox?? i dont know why?

i feel like textbox is a different layer and its not including the active search area??

any suggestions
