## Example

To find and replace text in a Word file, you must have a pre-existing file and follow these steps:

1 - Select the "**Open Word**" object from the "**Word**" menu and drag it to your working area.

* First you should define a singular object name in the **"Object Identifier Name"** field and select the file to open. 
* If the "**Run in Background**" option is selected, it will run in the background

2 - Then select the **"Find and Replace"** object, select the main object defined when opening the file, enter the text to be searched in the file and, finally, the text that will replace the original one.
