Subject:Word search for capital letters From:Nancy Allison <maker -at- verizon -dot- net> To:techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com Date:Fri, 11 Apr 2008 09:25:02 -0500 (CDT)
I have just visited the techwr-l archives and have not been successful finding a thread about this. I suspect that we had this discussion just yesterday . . . but I deleted because it wasn't an issue for me. Now, one day later, it is.
I am dealing with a document that is peppered with irregularly used capital letters. I'd like to be able to use Find to hop from one capitalized term to the next, so I can get an idea easily of what I'm dealing with.
I would be very grateful if someone could let me in on the secret of how to use wildcards to find capitalized words.
Sorry if this is a repeat, but I am never successful with the techwr-l search function (a topic for another thread).
