Tools: Find and Replace

If you are working with like a thesis that is 100 pages long and you need to correct, say a misspelled word all over your document or a single word on the 77th page, what are you going to do? This is where the Find and Replace comes to play. To use this, on the Home tab, click "find" on the Editing section.



You will be prompted by a dialog box. Fill in the word you want to find and replace manually.




If you want to do multiple edits, choose the replace tab. Enter the word you want to replace and then enter the word that you would want to replace with. You could either choose "replace" or "replace all" to commit the changes. "Replace all" will replace the words found in the document with the correct word of your choosing.
