List Files Find Feature To Locate A String Wi |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: The customer reported difficulty using List Files and the option 9-Find to locate a document containing a particular Social Security number. For the Word Pattern, she was typing XXX-XX-XXXX (where X represents any number). This same sequence allowed her to find Social Security numbers in WordPerfect 5.0. Solutions: The minus is an operator which conducts an exclusive search. For example, if the user typed merge-macros for the Word Pattern, WordPerfect would find files which contained merge but not macros. In order for WP to recognize a word or string which contains hyphens, the user must enclose it in quotes. To accomplish the search the customer desired, she would need to enter "XXX-XX-XXXX" for the search string. |
