You can do this. In the find dialog there are forward find and reverse find buttons. The continue search uses the last direction chosen. So if you want to switch search directions hit your mouse find key and tab to the button you want and press enter. If you're keeping the same search term the shift-tab will take you to the reverse find button. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol and Roger" <[email protected]>

Hello.

I have no problem with the defined keys, but have chosen to re-assign the continue search to something more comfortable for me. I would like to know if there is a way I can create a search for previous occurrence of a search string. It has been my experience that I will find something and find out that I may need to go back to a previous occurrence of the same thing. For example, when in digest mode for list information, I search for the word "subject". I continue through the message and may find something relating to a previous post I would like to read again. It would be nice to be able to go back to the previous "subject" or two instead of having to go back to the top of the file and starting over. As it is now, I have to press the page up screen a time or two, and if that is not far back enough, I may have to repeat that, increasing the number of times. Thank you for your help.

Carol
