Season's greetings! I have noticed that the Find & Replace feature of
OpenOffice Writer will not detect text within fields.
Example:
1. create a document that contains today's date on the first page,
using Insert > Fields > Date.
2. Duplicate that page.
3. Press ctrl-f.
4. As the search key, enter the day of today's date (for example, if
today is 12/23/10 then enter 23 in the search box).
Expected results:
1. A dialog box may prompt if you want to resume your search at the
beginning of the document.
2. If you click "yes," then the day of today's date should be
highlighted, and you should be able to advance to the next occurrence
by clicking "Find."
Actual results:
1. A dialog box prompts if you want to resume your search at the
beginning of the document.
2. A second dialog box appears, saying: "Search key not found."
Is this is a bug, or is the software working as designed?
