Find Replace text FOO with Style “Heading 1” with Foo
I am trying to find an easy way to convert my Word documents to HTML without the awful save-as that is built in. These are structured documents (designed for our screen-reader (JAWS) users), and so they use Heading 1, 2, 3, 4 & the Table of Contents.
We plan to convert these to DAISY audiobooks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DAISY_Digital_Talking_Book ) , so we need pretty clean, but structured, HTML to convert.
I tried the find-replace, using Styles, but it would just replace anything in the text part of the search. I could convert it from any one style to another, but adding text in the box messed it up.
(I think I see that CSS for DAISY means that instead of just <h2> it will have to be <level2 class=='section' <h2> (and closing tags), but that's step 2 after I handle this part.)
I just want to be able to find any text using Style 2 and add text to the start of that line saying "yep, here's some style 2" so that I can do the HTML/CSS stuff.
Thanks!
(I initially posted this in StackOverflow because I didn't know SuperUsers existed. I would be happy adding a VBA thingie if that's the best solution, but if there's a simpler one, then that would be awesome too. Thanks again!)

If you still have access to an older version of MS Word (especially version 2010 or 2013), I would recommend using the Open XML to DAISY XML Translator. Unfortunately, this extension is not yet available for Office 2016.
