# Replace Dialog Box

To find and replace a string of text:

1. Enter the string to be replaced in the Find text box and press Enter or Return (or click Find Next).
2. Enter the string to replace the found string in the Replace with text box and click Replace. Further occurrences of the Find string (if any) are automatically selected so you can continue to click Replace.

- Click on the Find Backward checkbox to change the direction of the search.
- Click on the Ignore Case checkbox to cause the search to be case sensitive.
- Use the Control + T key as a shortcut for opening the Replace dialog box.
- Click Replace Rest to replace all remaining occurrences of the Find string.
- Both the Find and Replace dialog boxes automatically place text selected in the editor window in the Find text box.
- Both the Find and Replace dialog boxes maintain a list of the 20 most recent strings. You can move up down the list using the arrow keys when the Find text box has focus.
- Regular expressions (substitution characters) are not supported in this release.
