WD97: Find and Replace Won't Use Buttons on Formatting Toolbar (173814)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Word 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q173814 SYMPTOMS
If you use Word 97 as your e-mail editor and click a button on
the Formatting toolbar, the Find and Replace dialog box may lose focus.
WORKAROUND
When you are using Word as your e-mail editor and want to find or replace
formatting in a mail message, you must use the Format menu in the Find and
Replace dialog box, and not the buttons on the Formatting toolbar.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products
listed at the beginning of this article.
MORE INFORMATION
Normally in Word 97, you can click the buttons on the Formatting toolbar to
set criteria for the Find and Replace dialog box. That is, you can click
the Bold, Italic, Underline, or paragraph alignment buttons, or select
something from the Style, Font, or Font Size lists to enter information
under the Find What or Replace With criteria. However, this feature is not
available if you use Word as the editor in an e-mail program, such as
Microsoft Outlook.
