The Find dialog box enables you to search a file for specified text or numbers. You can also include special characters (for example, paragraph marks and symbols) in your search criteria. Replace enables you to search for a word and replace it with another.

Options available to narrow or speed your search are:

• Match Case. Finds only those occurrences with the exact combination of uppercase and lowercase letters specified in the Find What box.
• Regular Expression. Searches for text using the wildcard characters ,*, (matches any number of characters) and a question mark, ?, (matches any single character).
• Wrap around search. Searches the entire file from the current insertion point.
• Direction (to search). Up searches from the insertion point to the beginning of the document. Down searches from the insertion point to the end of the document.
• Mark All. Marks all of the lines with instances of your search text with a bookmark. For more information, see Using Bookmarks to Move Within a File.
