      Hi, Can anybody help me with the correct commands.

      I would like to find multiple words in a paragraph and affix a character at the beginning of the word.

      For example, I need to find words computer, machine, laptop and affix *** at the beginning so that they will become ***computer, ***machine, ***laptop.

      Thanks for the help.

        Cheers.
