The Power of “Find”
September 21, 2007
The Power of the “Find” function in Word’s Edit menu will lower your frustration level. Place your cursor (Insertion Point) at the very top of your document… now let’s get started.
Scenario: You have a form letter that you have addressed to a customer and you want to call the customer but you’re not sure about his phone #. You do know that his # is somewhere in your doc. You also know he is in the “613″ area code.
Let’s find the number! Go to the Edit menu and choose “Find”.
Choose the “Find” tab at that screen.
Enter 613 in the “Find What:” field and click “Find Next” at the bottom of the Find window… Voila! there’s the first “613″. I think you’ve found your customer’s phone #. Does he have a cell phone in the same area code that may be in your document… click “Find Next” and there it is!
