Help-Copy Articles From A Main Word Document (by looking for a specific character, "^" within)

(1) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 6
Hello,
 
I'm somewhat new to Power Automate and I'm trying to create a flow that runs every Friday morning, recognizes the newest Word document in (folder path 1); opens it, and looks for every instance of "^". That character shows the beginning and end of each article. Copies each article and pastes them into their own Word Documents, which will be saved in (folder path 2). 
 
I'm having a hard time writing the flow to copy each article correctly. If someone could help out here it would be greatly appreciated!!
