Find and Replace Words or Phrases Did you write your entire screenplay using your sweetheart’s name, Hamlet, as the hero? And now Hamlet has abandoned you and you want to replace the hero’s name with Romeo? No problem: • From the Edit menu, choose “Find.,” or press Command F.
A search field appears below the ruler bar. • Click the “Replace” checkbox to open a Replace text field below the search field. • In the Find field, type the word you want to find, such as Hamlet. • In the Replace field, type the word or phrase that will replace the found word, such as Romeo. • Find and replace: Replace: Replaces the currently selected occurrence of the word or phrase, then automatically finds the next occurrence. All: Replace all occurrence of the found text. Press (don’t click) on the “All” button to see more options.
To manually find other occurrence of the text, click the Previous and Next buttons. For more search options, click the small double-arrows next to the magnifying glass icon on the left side of the window. • Click “Done” to put the Find and Replace fields away.
Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: intel I can usually use either find or replace once. The next time I try it, Word crashes. Frequently, the find and replace functions don't work, as they report nothing found, but when Word restarts after the crash, I find it. My guess is that the tables have something to do with it.
Really frustrating. Is Microsoft working on a fix for this? (It would be nice if they allowed the search window to float while as well. Having to close it, fix the document, then open it again is really tedious.) A possible work-around is to use the find function to find each instance of the target. Then close the search window, do the replace, and open the search window again. I have successfully used that technique.
CyberTaz 22/6/2008, 19:54 น. Hello ________- I doubt MS is working on a fix because it isn't broken. At least not here in 2 separate installations of 12.1.0, and this is the only report of any such problem (here, at least).
I don't question what you're experiencing, but it isn't a bug in the program. It must be something local to your system causing the behavior. Once we find out what that is we can help you correct it with no need for a workaround. First thought - Are you using the OS X feature called Spaces? If so, turn it off, restart your Mac & see if the problem continues. Office 2008 is admittedly incompatible with Spaces at the present time.
