Obviously the header style has to be there to be found, just as a book mark has
to be there to be found or a particular word or sequence of characters or
punctuation or what ever you are searching for must be there to be found.
The original inquiry was if there is a way to search for a heading and there is
so long as a proper heading is there of course. If there is not then sir you
are correct, there is no way to search for something which isn't there.
If you look at the list of available things to be searched for it is actually
rather extensive. I am glad to have had another look, some of these things I
can probably use now that I have reconsidered them.
To be sure, it is not a JAWS function and therefore probably not really for the
JAWS list but I am nevertheless happy to have stumbled over it, a second look
at something I have not used to it's potential.

Subject: Searching for headers in word
Hi listers,
Reissue due to a goof in the text. Some day I will get it right the first
time. Sigh.
First, notice that this type of search is not for a header, but for a specific
heading level. These two items are completely different.
The problem with searching for headings is that your search has to match the
heading style you are looking for in your document. For example, if you look
for a Heading Level 1 style, and your document does not have one, you will not
find that style. That is, the styles have to match for you to find it. You
can't just look for a heading and expect to find it unless it matches in your
document. And you cannot search for a header; it is not in the text area and
Word has no facility to search for headers.
Francis
