Text Searching

You can search for text in the workbench as follows:

1.

In the workbench toolbar, click the Search button .

2.

In the Search Expression field, type a string (for example, type: it).

The combo box for the Search Expression field also lets you select from a list of recently performed searches.

3.

You can select or deselect the Case Sensitive check box depending on whether or not you want to perform a case sensitive or insensitive search. 

We want to search for lowercase "it" so check the Case Sensitive box. 

4.

In the Extensions field you can specify the types of files to include in your search. 

Click Browse...  to open the Type Selection Dialog. This dialog provides you with a quick way to select from a  list of registered extensions.

 For the moment we will confine our search to *.txt files. Ensure *.txt is checked and click  OK.

5.

Click Search.

Note that you can click Cancel to cancel the search while it is in progress and that the Search dialog shows the progress of the search.

6.

Notice that the Search view is displayed.
