I remember that spacebar tip now that you mentioned it and I also remember
thinking it would actually put a space in your document which it didn't.
Thanks a million!

Kimsan,

Yes, the pagedown key finds the next instance, but I don't use it because I
could get confused between the two functions. Try this. After your original
search locates the first instance, press the spacebar. I've just confirmed
what happens. You're taken to the next instance and told the number of
instances of that string in the document. This assumes you don't leave the
search function.

This thread brings up an interesting question, as I thought I saved the
note.  It was from another jfw list of which I'm no longer apart of so I
cannot search the archive.

When performing a search in word, there was a tip to find the next
occurrence of the word, I think it was page up and page down, now that I
think of it. Let me go right the word haha hahaha hahaha and see if it will
work.

Hi Ed,

Try the Jaws Find Dialogue, Insert / Jaws Key, Control, + F.  Another tip,
for files like this I will save them as text files to make it easier to
search for numbers / words.
Take care.

Hi Group,

I have a TV listing on a word doc. If I want to do a search for a certain
channel how can I do that. I have tried using the ctrl+F but have not
figured out how to use it. Any suggestions on this would be appreciated.



Ed
