Add a comma to the end of each line in a document using Find and Replace

You can easily add a comma to the end of each line in Word by using the Find and Replace function. Here's how:

  1. Select the content where you want to add a comma at the end of each line, then press Ctrl + H to open the "Find and Replace" dialog box.
  2. In the dialog box, type "^p" (indicating the end of a line) in the "Find what" textbox, and ",^p" (to add a comma at the end of each line) in the "Replace with" textbox.

  3. Click "Replace All". A dialog will appear asking if you want to search the rest of the document. Click "Yes" or "No" depending on your needs.
