Default Search for italicized words

Hi,

I know the answer is probably no, but with WordPerfect you could b/c you could show the code.

Is there any way I can search a doc for all the italicized words?

Thanks




Michelle

You could use a Find where you specify italics as the font attribute...

Ok, I found the area. Cool

But do I have to go to "font" every time I open a new Word doc, or will it remember that I always want to search for any word that's italicized?

If the latter, forget it, it's going to take more time then it's worth to do that unless there's a way to save a "find" query.

Thanks Paul

Whatever you input as the last set of Find parameters remains active, even across multiple documents (and even if you close all documents), provided you don't close Word.
