Another way to use the Find dialog to search for bolded characters is to just press Control+b after pressing Control+f to bring up the dialog. Then press Enter to get to the first instance.

Hi Eileen and all,

If you're doing this in Word, it's quite possible to use the find dialog to
take you from one instance of bole text to another.

1. Open the fine dialog with control+f.
2. Tab to the "more" button and press spacebar.
3. press alt+o for format.  You will see the format menu.
4. Press enter on font.
5. You only want to change one thing in the dialog that appears.  In the
font style box, use the arrow keys until you hear it say "bold".
6. press enter. that will close the dialog.
You can then press enter on find next.  When it finds an instance, press
escape so you can actually work with the document.  When you're ready for
the next one, press control+f again.  If you haven't done another search,
you can just press enter on find next, and you'll go to the next instance.
Repeat this as many times as necessary.  Hope this helps.

Thanks.  I knew about the insert f, but these are very big tables and I
would have to hit those keys many times.

Ilene, With my jaws 7.1 bolded print has a different pitch than regular
type.  If you have the utility to reveal codes you can hit  Jaws key F
under any word to find out if the word is bolded.  hth, Judith

Hi,
I just received a notice that I am to make changes to some of our tables
with new fields.  I have gotten these notices quite often over five or so
years and they have always just given me the changes.  However, this time
they have given me several tables with all the fields in them and they say
that the changed fields are in bold.

How can I easily go through these tables and find the fields that are in
vold?

I have word 2003 and JFW version 8 and Windows XP.

Thanks for any help,
