How do I search for a string in the Text tab of the Layers panel

I have a world map with a text layer for country names. I hide the country names as needed by clicking on the 'eye' icon for Toggle Visibility in the Layers panel. I've inadvertently hidden one name and I need to know how to find it in the Text panel so I can make it visible again. How do I seatrch for a name in the Text panel?

Just in case there is an unlocked and visible object close to the hidden one in the stacking order, you may select that object right on the artboard and then go to the Layers palette menu and take the Locate Object command.
Of course, this would be just one possible workaround to locate the hidden objects a bit easier.

How do i search for a string in a txt file using java??

Regular expressinos work just fine, especially when
searching for patterns. But they seem to be impying
it's a specific group of characters they're looking
for, and indexOf() is much faster than a regex.If he's reading from a file, the I/O time will likely swamp any performance hit that regex introduces. I think contains() (or indexOf() if he's not on 5.0 yet) is preferable to regex just because it's simpler. (And in the case of contains(), the name makes for a very clear, direct mapping between your intent and the code that realizes it.)

How can I search for a string like a partial IP address in the global search

When searching for a string like "10.255." the global search finds messages containing "255" or "10" and both.
This happens no matter whether quotation is used or not.
When quotation is used it probably will match on the given order as well, but beeing in the timezone '+0100' the string "10" is always found first (in the email headers...).
Is there a way to tell the global search not to use '.' or any other character as whitespace?

When I search for something, firefox opens a new tab with the results. How can I change the settings to where it will all stay in the same tab?

When I search something Firefox automatically opens a new tab with the results of this search. How do I change the settings to where the results will appear in the same tab as where I conducted the search?

Whether to open search results in new window most often is a setting of the search engine you are using.

6 rows selected.Be careful though. If you have a large amount of data this search could take a long time because Oracle will not choose an indexed path. If that's an issue you should investigate using Oracle Text.

Searching for a string in given text file

Hi,
I have two strings and i need to search the entire file for the strings and highlight the lines between the strings

hi this is xyz
i am a begineer in java
can i have some help in this issue please
i gave 'hi' and 'can' i need the three lines to be highlighted
can you give me an idea about this.
how to proceed
thanks all in advance

Here's an idea. Find a link to the java API. Create a utility class with a method to read a file and a method to write a file. Look in java.io for this. That should keep you busy for a while and give you something specific to ask questions about. Next, create a GUI class and put a button on it. Figure out how to make a button click open a "FileChooser" or "JFileChooser" (Look in the api for that) Imagine that these need to talk to each other so figure out what parameters are needed. After you've done that then figure out how the user is going to enter the two search criteria (something that acts like a text field). Choose a GUI class that supports text highlighting. Display all the information that the user would like to know e.g. The name of the file selected to parse, the name of the file to write, and whether the strings were found successfully.

Search for a string in Data Merge, then change the font color

I'm working on a postcard-style invitation with the addresses on the back. So far, I've finished the invitation and the mail-side template with a Data Merge to a CSV file successfully. Now, as part of my design, I want all of the letter "b"s on the mail-side template (Data Merge) to be yellow. Using JavaScript is this possilbe? This is what I have so far, but something is wrong:
     app.findTextPrefences = NothingEnum.NOTHING as FindTextPreference;
     app.changeTextPrefences = NothingEnum.NOTHING as ChangeTextPreference;
     var myColor:Color = myDocument.colors.add();
     myColor.model = ColorModel.PROCESS;
     myColor.space = ColorSpace.CMYK;
     myColor.colorValue = [0, 0, 100, 16];
     app.findChangeTextOptions.caseSensitive = false;
     app.findChangeTextOptions.includeFootnotes = false;
     app.findChangeTextOptions.includeHiddenLayers = false;
     app.findChangeTextOptions.includeLockedLayersForFind = false;
     app.findChangeTextOptions.includeLockedStoriesForFind = false;
     app.findChangeTextOptions.includeMasterPages = false;
     app.findChangeTextOptions.wholeWord = false;
     app.findTextPrefences.findWhat = "b";
     app.changeTextPrefences.fillColor = myColor;
     app.findTextPrefences = NothingEnum.NOTHING as FindTextPreference;
     app.changeTextPrefences = NothingEnum.NOTHING as ChangeTextPreference;

Hi,
After setting preferences you need to call changeText() method, like
myDoc.changeText();
or
myStory.changeText();
But this is a static solution.
You could use a dinamic solution by define a proper characterStyle and take advantage of nestedGrepStyle in style applied to this part of your design.
So each character "b" could be applied with your characterStyle automatically, no need to run a script.

Searching for a string in an excel file and return true if found.

How can I search for a string in an excel file and return true if found, its location and also a value.

The problem with searching an excel file is that it contains a header. It would be easiest if you just read the file into a LabVIEW array and search the array. This way you can also get the index and the value of the location.

How to search for a string in a DefaultListModel

I have a list of names stored in a DefaultListModel and would like to know how i can search for a particular name
i assume i would have to use the method below but not sure of how to implement it
so basically i would have a texfield where a user can type in a name to find in the list
public int indexOf(Object elem)
Searches for the first occurence of the given argument.
Parameters:
elem - an object.
or i might be wrong
Any ideas of how to write this mechanism
Can anyone please help on this

The DefaultListModel uses a Collection of some sort (Vector at present) to store data. You can get this data in two ways:
   DefaultListModel model = (DefaultListModel)list.getModel();
    Enumeration e = model.elements();
    while(e.hasMoreElements()) {
      if (e.nextElement().equals(elem)) return;
    }or
    Object[] array = model.toArray();
    for (int i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
      if (array.equals(elem)) return;

How to continously read for a string or word in a file?

Hi
I have been trying for a while now to search for a word that is being written to a file.
I was wondering if anyone can get me over this hump?
What I am doing is reading from the serial port to a file (example file called test), and while this is being done I want to search for the word "passed" or the phrase "test passed"
Once I fine this word or phrase, I can stop the test
I cannot figure out how to search the file, I used the scan file VI and the search/ replace VI etc with no luck!
Your suggestions is appreciated

It's always best to post your code so others can see the work you've done. Suggestions will be more effective that way.
So your reading from a serial port to a file? What do you mean by this? Are you reading from the serial port and writing the data to a file? It's the file you want to read, isn't it? If I had your code I could answer my own questions
Why don't you just monitor the incoming data stream from the serial port for "passed."
But to read from a file and search for a string, Smercurio is correct. Match Pattern will do what you need (You can use this same function for ASCII serial data as well).

Lines in what? And what language are you using to develop with?
Are the lines in a text file? A RichTextBox? A TextBox? Some other control? A List(Of String)?
Is there some expectation by you that by providing what you wrote in your question post that the knowledge in your mind about what you are thinking about will mysteriously emanate to anybody reading your post so all of the sudden your knowledge will
become their knowledge and they will be able to provide you with an answer as they will suddenly understand what you are trying to do? Because that's probably impossible. Most people try providing enough information in a question so anybody, even stupid people
like me, can understand what they want. Maybe you should try that. As well as selecting an appropriate forum for your question in the future. Usually a question like this is related to programming in a particular language therefore a language forum may be
a good choice. Or not.

How do I search for and select a repeating phrase in a file.

How do I search for and select a repeating phrase in a file read via Applescript. The file contains details of phone calls submitted to a charity and I want to be able to analyse the types of call taken. The phrase is 'Type of enquiry' and I want to extract the description that follows. I am a beginner at Applescript and have been working my way through Applescript 1-2-3 but cannot find an obvious solution although I have manged to open and read the file! All suggestions gratefully received.

In applescript you can use something like the following:
set {oldTID, my text item delimiters} to {my text item delimiters, "Type of enquiry"}
set dataBits to text items of textToParse
set my text item delimiters to oldTID
the variable dataBits, then, will be a list where every list item is a string that starts with the text following that phrase.
You could do regular expressions searches as well, but you'd need to download and install the Satimage osax.
