|
Friends --
In Neo Office, I've used search/replace for a couple of years with no problem. I used Command-F> enter search term> replace with> replace all -- it was fine. Today it can't even find a letter/word I'm looking at right on the page. I closed & re-opened Neo Office. Same problem. Any ideas?
Thanks
Don |

I know this might be a dumb suggestion but: make sure you have not enabled case-sensitive and whole-word searching. There are also some other options that can be revealed by clicking on the "More options" button, that could also affect searches. |

If case-sensitive and whole-word searching were unchecked, I would recommend that you uncheck all of the options shown when you click on the "More options" buttons.
If you still cannot get searching to work after unchecking all options, let us know and if you can attach a small document where searching is not working, we can then check to see if any things like language settings in the document itself are causing this problem.
