How To Find And Replace Text In Word

Microsoft Word is the most popular application for word processing. No matter if you’re a student who needs to write up an essay or a business owner looking to make company reports, Word has you covered.

When you’re writing lengthy documents, it’s quite tedious and nearly impossible to manually make a lot of edits to your file. This includes replacing words. You might also notice that it becomes harder to find specific words in your file. Microsoft thought of this and made it possible to quickly find and even replace text in a Word document.

Our article will guide you through the steps necessary to do this, even if you’re a complete beginner to Word.

Things you’ll need

A device with Microsoft Word installed and activated.

Let’s get right into it.

Launch Word. You can do this by locating where it is on your computer:

You’ll see the welcome screen. Here, you can either open an existing document or start working on a new one.

Find And Replace In Word

You can use the Navigation pane to search for specific words or phrases in a document.

The Navigation pane appears on the left, displaying the Results view.

Press Ctrl + F.

The search runs automatically. Results are highlighted in the document, and the Navigation pane lists all instances of the word.

You can use the arrows under the search box to jump to the Previous or Next search result.

The Navigation pane closes.

To search your documents for more specific items, such as certain capitalization or only whole words, use Advanced Find.

Select Advanced Find.

The Find and Replace dialog box opens.

Type the word you’re looking for in the Find box.

By default, the Find and Replace dialog box only shows the basics—a search field. There are more options available if you expand the dialog box.

You can choose to exactly match the case or only search for whole words. You can also use wildcards, or ignore punctuation and spacing.

Word navigates to and selects the next instance that fits the additional criteria.

The Find and Replace dialog box closes.

Replace Text

If you’ve spelled something incorrectly in multiple places, Word can fix them all with just a few steps.

The Find and Replace dialog box opens to the Replace tab.

Type the word you need to replace in the Find what text field.

Type the word you need to replace in the Replace with text field.

Select a replacement option.

Replace All: Fixes all instances of the word at once.

Once all the instances of the word have been replaced, a dialog box will pop up to let you know it’s complete.

The Find and Replace dialog box closes.

How To Quickly Highlight Recurring Text In Word

Highlighting text in Microsoft Word is easy if you know these two shortcuts.

Highlighting is a common task in Microsoft Word because it allows the reader to quickly find specific words or phrases. If the text occurs a lot, manually highlighting all instances would be tedious, and fortunately is unnecessary. In this article, I’ll show you two ways to highlight recurring text: using Word’s Find & Replace and Find options. Both are good tools to know when you want to review surrounding text rather than make a blanket change. Both are easy but come with a few limitations.

I’m using (desktop) Office 365, but you can use earlier versions. You can work with your own document or download the simple demonstration .docx file. It doesn’t work in the browser edition.

How to highlight in Word using Find & Replace

Figure A

When highlighting recurring text, you might turn to Replace first, but you’ll find highlighting on the Find tab, not Replace. Let’s run through a simple example by adding a green highlight to every instance of the word video in the demonstration document:

First, choose the highlight color. This step might not matter, but it’s important to note that Word will apply the current highlight, which might happen to be no highlight at all. For our purposes, choose green from the Text Highlight Color dropdown in the Font group (on the Home tab).

In the Find What control, enter video

From the Reading Highlight, choose Highlight All. Figure A shows the highlights.

If you highlight another word or phrase-regardless of the highlight color you use-Word will remove the results of the Highlight All task.

If you remove the highlight from any of the highlighted instances, Word will remove them all.

After highlighting, you can quickly peruse your document and make updates as necessary. The highlighting will stay in place until you remove it. You can even save the highlights.

However, all this quick highlighting has its limits:

Now, let’s do the same thing using Find in the Navigation pane.

In the text control, enter video and press Enter. Word will automatically highlight all instances (Figure C).

How to highlight in Word using Find

There’s more than one way to highlight recurring text, and you’ll want to be familiar with both. This time we’ll use the Find option, but you can skip choosing a highlight color because Word will ignore the setting. Now, do the following:

The same caveats apply as before when trying to work with subsequent highlighting. In addition, when you close the Navigation pane, all highlights disappear. For this reason, I find this option less flexible, but if you’re working in the Navigation pane for other reasons, it works well.

Stay tuned

In a subsequent article, I’ll show you how to replace one highlighting color with another! If you have any cool highlight tips, please share them in the Comments section below.

Making ordinary texts look extraordinary has been possible for many versions of Word. Alas, the features can make ordinary text look awful – if you’re not careful.

Word 2003

There’s a gallery of choices – most of which have been grossly overused. Choose one that’s near what you want, enter the text, choose a font and size.

Word 2007

Initially, WordArt seems little different in Word 2007. Under the Insert tab, there’s a WordArt button which opens up the same gallery options as in Word 2003.

Some of the options available (from left):

Edit Text – opens the initial dialog to set the text, font and text size

Spacing – changes the horizontal spacing of the letters.

Even Height – makes all letters the same height

Vertical Text

Alignment – some common options like left, center and right plus Word, Letter or Stretch justification.

Styles

Color

Outline

Warp – changes the path that the text takes across the box.

Shadow Effects

3-D effects

And finally there’s formatting and positioning options for the entire WordArt box.

The big change is Live Preview which was introduced in Office 2007. With Live Preview you make selections on the ribbon and see those changes immediately appearing in the document.

In a follow up we’ll see how the text effects have been much improved in Office 2010.
