We have a 350 technical papers that we want to remove the lines with names and emails. Doing manual removal could take longer time…Is there a way that we can remove those lines using pything script? Really need your guidance on how to code it…I have a little background in Python…see image…thanks
I tried this code…but when email is in hyperlink format it wont remove.
import docx
def delete_paragraph(paragraph):
p = paragraph._element
p.getparent().remove(p)
#p._p = p._element = None
doc = docx.Document('sample01.docx')
lines = doc.paragraphs
delline = ".com"
for line in lines:
if delline in (line.text):
print(line.text)
delete_paragraph(line)
doc.save('sample01.docx')
