Default Find in alphabetical order list


In Office 2010 I have a very long list (several dozen pages) of phrases in alphabetical order. If I am looking for one of the phrases that start with “S” is there a quick process to go to the “S” section of the list without having to scroll to the “S” section? Thanks in advance for any help here.

Hi 14spar15,

You could use a Find, with the expression being '^pS'. This will take you to the first paragraph break followed by an 'S' (capital-only if you check the 'match case' option).
