When there are no more occurrences, the following message appears, and

the prompt will disappear when you hit a key.

Word(s) not found.

Resume normal word processor operation or go back to step (1) to search for

another string - or for the same string again. Since the search string remains

in memory until you define another or turn the power off, you will not have to
re-enter it in step (5) when you search repeatedly for the same string, and

exit to make changes.

Defining a Search String

The 63-character iimit refers to the number of characters you see on the

screen. An accented character (made with a dead key) or superimposed
characters (made with a permanent backspace) count as a single character
even if it takes two or more keystrokes to type.

The search function distinguishes between upper and lower case letters. For

example, if you specify “ALPHA”, it will not stop at “alpha” or “Alpha”.

Each space that you type (with B8BiC£B

as one character.

The string input area initially appears as a continuous underline. Everything

before the trailing underline is considered part of the string. The string shown
beiow, for example, is five characters long because it ends with two spaces.

Type search wordCs)* Press RETURN to start search*

SEARCH :AAA |_______________________________________

The search function stops at every string that matches the specified string -
even if the match is inside a word. If the specified string is “at”, it stops at “at”
of “hat”, “attention”, etc. If you wish to search only for the word “at”, specify
“_at_”, leaving a space on each side of the word.

The search function ignores “soft spaces” that are added by the justify func­
tion and hyphens other than permanent ones. If “word processor” is the spec­

ified string, the function will stop at “word______processor” if there is an extra

space inserted by the justify function and at “word pro-cessor” if the hyphen

was typed in the hot zone.

The search string cannot contain styles such as bold, underline, subscript, or
superscripts because the search function ignores them. If you specify “A2”, it
stops at “A2”, “A^”, “A

2

” - and all combinations with bold and underline as

well.

Pressing iOlfcl during string input stops the search function, but the string

remains in memory until you define another search string, or turn the power

off.
