REPLACING TEXT
 
Overview: <Edit Replace command>
 
To replace specific text in your document:
1. Choose Edit Replace (Alt,E,E).
2. Type the text you want to search for in the
   Text To Search For box.
3. Type the replacement text in the Replace With
   box.
4. Turn on Whole Word if the text you are
   searching for is a whole word. Otherwise, Word
   searches for all occurrences of the letter
   combination in the search text.
5. Turn on Match Upper/Lowercase to search for
   text that matches the capitalization of the
   search text.
6. If you do not want to confirm each occurrence
   before it is replaced, turn off Confirm
   Changes.
7. Choose OK.
 
To repeat the replacement for the next
occurrence, press F4.
