INTRODUCTION

You can use Word's Find feature to locate text, characters, paragraph formatting, or even special characters. For example, if you want to determine where your document refers to a specific name or date, you can search for that text and Word will take you to the location in the document.

TIP

Narrowing Your Search

Click the More button on the Find and Replace dialog box to display additional search options you can use to narrow the scope of your search. For example, if the word you're looking for is in all caps, type the word in all caps in the Find What text box and select the Match Case check box in the Search Options area. If Word cannot find the text you are searching for, a message appears telling you the search item was not found. Click OK to resume working on the document.
