Tech Tips - Finding and Replacing Text Quickly

Have you ever finished a long document and realized after 20 pages that you have used one word when you should have used another? In many of the Microsoft Office programs, including Word, Excel and FrontPage, you are able to quickly find and replace text.

• To replace text, choose Edit from the menu bar. Then select Replace.
• In the Find What field, type the word that you have used.
• In the Replace With field, type what you should have used. You may also just leave it blank and it will replace with nothing, removing all traces of the word you want to delete.
• Then you can choose to either replace them all at once or check each one by replacing one at a time.
