Hi Rick Thanks for your reply. I guess it's a half-implementation, then...sigh.

Hi Roger, FrameMaker 11 doesn't support wildcards on the replacement side. FrameMaker 12 supports regular expressions on Find and Change sides.

I have a document containing a lot of number ranges that use a hyphen instead of an en-dash; for example, 1-3. I'd like to replace the hyphen while preserving the preceding and following numbers. In Word I'd use a wildcard search for ([0-9])-([0-9]) and replace with \1-\2, where \1 and \2 represent the values in the parentheses (and sorry, I can't type an en-dash in this message). When I try this with FM it doesn't find anything. How do you preserve the values in FM? Thanks.
