How to search for text in document

How do you search text within a document on the Samsung Galaxy 10.1? I click the search icon, enter the text to search and nothing happens. The only options I see are a circled "x" and "Cancel". The program does not automatically go to the entered search string and I cannot find anyway to cause the program to find the words. Thanks,

Once you have typed your search term in, you need to tap the "enter" key on the keyboard. Once you do, the keyboard should close, and you should see the first instance selected.
There will be two Arrow buttons in the bottom center of the screen to go back and forth through all of the instances of this word in the document.
If the word could not be found, then a message displaying "search term" not found will appear at the bottom of the screen above those buttons.

How to Search for text in a word document and replace it

Hey All ,
I am able to open up a word document present locally using OLE2 Automation. Now i need to search for a text in that document
and replace it with another text. How do i achieve this?
And another issue is when i search for the particular pattern i need to store the pattern that comes after the pattern as i need it for further use before i replace it.
Thanks And Warm Regards,

Hey Chen,
Well before i do the search and edit , I am actually opening a .mts file in word which is happening successfully.
The issue that i am facing now is I am unable to save it as .doc file through the 'SaveAs' method.
Here is my code. Can u please tell me what i need to do in order to correct this.
After i do this conversion i intend to pass the data from the .doc file to an internal table and then do the required change.
But First i need to save it to .doc type.

Can Spotlight search for text inside documents?

I just lost a vital email -- detailed instructions for something I want to do, from a friend. And I don't know where I put it (overlapping possibilities exist within my filing structure).
SHHHH: Windows used to let me search for specific text, inside documents, not just file or folder titles. Can I do that in OSX.8.2?

Use the Find command or its shortcut:

How to search for words in documents in Lion

Here's why I'm trying to ask.
Lately I have downloaded a lot of files from Google Drive, and I'm trying to sort a lot of documents (262 exactly) by finding a set of numbers and letters that only one kind of document has.
For example, I'm trying to find the documents that have "5R-ET1" to see which documents has those set of letters inside the documents to sort them in a diffrent folder.
Is there something in the Finder that can allow me to do this, or is there like this program which compares documents that fits my use?
By the way, most of the files are in .doc format, the rest are in .pages format.
Hope there is a way to fix this situation!

Open to correction here but I don't think Spotlight will do this for you, particulary if these are long documents. Spotlight does not index then entire document, just the first 2k approx unique terms within a document. If the string you're looking for isn't within that limit then it won't work.
Options:
1. You could import the documents to an app like DevonThink Pro or Circus Ponies Notebook that have a concordance feature.
2. You could convert the files to Text and search them with BBEdit or the grep command.

How to search for words in binaries (jpg,bmp,tif,...) ??

Hello,
is it possible to index words from images with tenable effort ?
We are developing a document-management-system and it would be nice
when search includes images.
I would appreciate very much any suggestions, links or solutions.
regards,
Tim

>
Do you mean words in images in the sense of an image
comment (which is not visible when the image is
displayed, but some image editors can detect and
expose as an image property), or as text displayed as
part of the image, like this:
http://developer.java.sun.com/images/v4_java_sun_com.gi
If the latter, forget it.Hello,
first thanks for answers, I was looking for a possibility to search for text in images in order to save it in a database.
So its the latter :(
I thought it could be possible to use any scanner-drivers for this purpose:

But I'm not sure how to achieve this.

How do you highlight text in document in Pages

How do you highlight text in document in Pages

but Pages is NOT a 3rd party app. it's an application that's programmed by apple. it's supposed to act something like Word in MS office, but that is not at all true.
choices for editing text, highlighting, et al., like what you find in MS Office Word, should be immediately available whenever you are inside of a Pages document, but that is not the case.
don't you wish that when you buy an apple app for apple/macs that is supposed to be like a windows something or another that it really is?

Problems with searching for text in Preview

Hi, everyone...I'm hoping someone can help me out with this. I have an old MBP with Tiger installed and Preview 3.0.9. I have attempted to search for words in numerous PDF files and the search function NEVER brings up the words even when I know the words are contained in the document. I read the Preview manual and I know I'm following the correct procedures in searching for text, but nothing seems to work. Can anyone help me out with what I may be doing wrong? Thanks!

I can't picture what you could possibly be doing wrong, there's not much choice in the matter.
The only time Searching fails here is if the text in the PDF is actually only a graphic of the text.
Are these PDFs that you made? If so, what APP?
If you down load this PDF, does Search work on it?

How to search for a certain cross reference using its name in FM 11?

How to search for a certain cross reference using its name in FM 11?

Well, thank you. I am only using Find dialog box. By "name", I'd like to give an example. The background is FM 11 structured. I have an element "xref" which is used to make cross reference. Now In Chapter 1, there is a sentence like "This is an ODU for ...". I made a cross ref of the word "ODU" to its full name "outdoor unit" in Chapter 2 (in the same book). After this, the word "ODU" in the sentence in Chapter 1 will no longer be a plain text. So I no longer can use the find dialog box to search for "ODU" because it is already an xref rather than text. I am not if it's clear.

How to search for upper/lower case using string using JAVA!!!?

-I am trying to write a program that will examine each letter in the string and count how many time the upper-case letter 'E' appears, and how many times the lower-case letter 'e' appears.
-I also have to use a JOptionPane.showMessageDialog() to tell the user how many upper and lower case e's were in the string.
-This will be repeated until the user types the word "Stop".
please help if you can
what i have so far:
[code]
public class Project0 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String[] uppercase = {'E'};
String[] lowercase = {'e'};
String isOrIsNot, inputWord;
while (true) {
   // This line asks the user for input by popping out a single window
   // with text input
   inputWord = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Please enter a sentence");
   if ( inputWord.equals("stop") )
    System.exit(0);
   // if the inputWord is contained within uppercase or
   // lowercase return true
   if (wordIsThere(inputWord, lowercase))
    isOrIsNot = "Number of lower case e's: ";
   if (wordIsThere(inputword, uppercase))
     isOrIsNot = "number of upper case e's: ";
   // Output to a JOptionPane window whether the word is on the list or not
   JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "The word " + inputWord + " " + isOrIsNot + " on the list.");
} //main
public static boolean wordIsThere(String findMe, String[] theList) {
for (int i=0; i<theList.length; ++i) {
   if (findMe.equals(theList[i])) return true;
return false;
} // wordIsThere
} // class Lab4Program1
[/code]
