An Internal Text Search locates text strings in an open text-based document. You can effectively customize searches by narrowing search criteria and/or the area in a document to search. (For example, you could search for a particular number value only if it is in a currency format. Or you could search only the first column of a document for a particular text string).
There are two methods for conducting an Internal Text Search:
-
Use the Internal Text Search dialog box
-
Use the Text Search toolbar
Note:
If an overlay is turned on, you cannot perform an internal text search on the document.
