You open the Find dialog box by clicking
Find on the Edit menu. You open the
Replace dialog box by clicking Replace on
the Edit menu.
The Find dialog box
searches the current file for instances of the specified text.
- In the Memory Editor, the Find
operation searches the entire file, or from the insertion point in
the direction specified in the Search list, whether or not
lines of text are selected. In the Text Editor, if multiple lines
of text are selected, the Find operation begins its search
in the selected text and continues to the beginning or end of the
file depending on the direction specified in the Search list.
- In the Text Editor, if multiple lines of text
are selected, each time you choose Replace, the command
begins its search and replace in the selected text and continues to
the beginning or end of the file depending on the direction
specified in the Search
list.
- In the RTL Viewer and Technology Map Viewer,
the standard Find dialog
box is not used. Instead, the Find tab in the Hierarchy pane contains the options you
need to complete finding operations.
The Replace dialog box
searches from the insertion point in the direction specified in the
Search list for specified text in the current file and
replaces it with the text in the Replace with box.
The following options are common in both the Find dialog box and Replace dialog box. Exceptions are
noted where applicable.
