    Cool Find Replace - With wild cards

    Hi
    I have a small issue.
    I'd like to find occurances of square brackets [], or this brackets (), in a word document and check if number or alphabet is immediately preceeding or suffixing it without space and if so insert one space.

    Eg. my house[VBF]is in china
    This I want to change it to my house [VBF] is in china

    Eg. my house(VBF)is in china
    This I want to change it to my house (VBF) is in china

    yes I used the wild card option in more..
    I believe it goes something like this in Find section: [A-Za-z0-9]\(
    I get struck up in the Replace section:???????

    Thanks in advance...

    patience is not the ability to wait but the ability to keep a good attitude while waiting
