Hi Kim,
You can use the "find" command in notepad just as you do in Word.
Press control plus f to open the find dialogue in notepad or wordpad.
You are sitting in an edit box.
Type the text you'd like to find.
If you typed the text and don't know whether you want to find upper or lower
case you can hit enter.
If you are certain of whether the text you're searching for is in upper or
lower case letters, tab until you see the option for "case sensitivity" and
make sure that is checked so that the letters will be searched for if they
are either upper or lower case depending upon what you typed.
Tab to "ok" and hit enter
You will be taken to the first instance of the occurrence of the text for
which you searched.
Hit escape to dismiss the dialogue and you can look around to see the text.
Hope that helps.
Mayrie

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] A question of navigation
Hi, I'm proofreading a file for Bookshare (actually I'm working with a
single rtf file and a text file in Notepad. The problem arises when I wish
to go to a specific place in Notepad, say, I wish Jaws to find Chapter
Thirteen (both in upper case) and somehow be able to get to a specific place
in the text file so I can compare text with that of the rtf document I'm
working with. The only thing I can do is hold down the down arrow key in
hopes of eventually reaching the text I want to look at. Is there an easier
way of navigating through Notepad so I can get to where I wish to be or is
this not something Notepad can deal with?
Regards, Kim Friedman.
