Tip

Use the Match Case and Find Whole Words Only checkboxes in the Find and Replace dialog box to narrow your search. If, for instance, you want to find the word Bell (a last name) and you don’t want lowercase instances of the word bell or words such as bellow, you could use both of these qualifiers for your find and replace operation.
