Search And Replace - Skipping Last Character
DocumentID: 601461

The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: When doing a backwards search and replace, if you're searching for the last character of the document, it is skipped during the search. For example, assume you have a document that ends with the letter z, and you want to replace all z's with another letter. If you are at the end of the document and execute a reverse search (Shift-F2), the very last character, which is a z, will not be replaced. Solutions: Searching backwards won't find the search condition if the cursor is directly to the right of the find condition. If a hard return [HRt] is inserted after the last character, then the search will work correctly.
