I have a MS Word 2016 book manuscript with lots of citations. I'm using the APA Style but want vary from it to suppress the year in citations for authors with only one entry in my bibliography. E.g., change the field
{ CITATION Car77 \l 1033 }
to
{ CITATION Car77 \y \l 1033 }
(I looked at editing the APA*.xsl file, but it looks like more work than doing global find and replaces.) However, if I invoke's Word's Replace dialog, fill in the "Find What:" and "Replace With:" with the text that should do the job (e.g., "Car77" with "Car77 \y"), every time the find lands within field text, the "Replace" button gets disabled.
There are discussions on using ^c and ^d and other tricks, but none work for me as the same thing happens with each one: it finds a field or text within and the "Replace" button goes gray. (Maybe a newer "feature"?) The "Replace All" button stays active, but clicking it invariably results in 0 replacements.
