ïHold the mouse down on any word in the book to bring up a pop-up menu of search options. (Depending on the hardware configuration you have, it may take a moment or two for the pop-up to appear.) The search options are as follows:Ñ    First takes you to the first occurrence of the word in the book.Ñ    Last takes you to the last occurrence of the word in the book.Ñ    Next and Previous take you to the next or previous page that contains the word. Once you╒ve already completed a search, you can go to the next or previous occurrence by clicking on the forward or back arrows on either side of the Find button on the Tool Palette. Note: The first time you do a search for the First, Last, Next, or Previous occurrence of a word it takes a few moments because a list is actually assembled of all occurrences. Since this list is held in memory until you search for a different word, a second search on the same word will be much faster.Ñ    All Occurrences opens a text window listing the page numbers of all occurrences of the word. (See ╥The Find Windows╙ below, for more about the Find windows.) Click on a page number to go to that page.    The page the search originated on will be marked by a Ñ. As you access each occurrence its page number in the Find window will turn to bold. Ñ    All in Context works just like All Occurrences except that, in addition to the page numbers, each occurrence is shown with two or three words on either side to give the context.Note: When you select All Occurrences, multiple occurrences of the same word on the same page are not listed. When All in Context is selected, each occurrence is listed.Ñ    Find Something Else is used to start a search for a word that is not visible on the current page, or for multiple words. Enter the text to be found in the dialog box that appears, and click OK. The page containing the first occurrence of the word appears, with the word highlighted, along with a window listing the page numbers of all occurrences of the word.    You can specify more than one word in the search criteria; just make sure each word is separated from the others by a space. The words do not have to appear contiguously or in the same order; they only have to appear on the same page. So, for example, you could search for places in a novel where two characters appear on the same page.     Note: Choosing the Find option from the Books Menu or clicking Find in the Tool Palette does the same thing as selecting Find Something Else.Ñ    Load Previous Find is used to restore Finds that you have saved. When you choose Load Previous Find, a list of saved Finds will appear in a dialog box. Select the Find you want to load and click ╥Load.╙ See ╥The Find Windows╙ below, for more information about loading previous finds.╥The Find Windows╙When you do a search for All Occurrences or All in Context, the results are put into a text window. The header of a Find window contains the text you searched for and the number of occurrences found. You can shrink the Find window to the size of its header by clicking the Zoom box. You can save the list of occurrences found by clicking the Close box in the window header and choosing Save from the dialog box that appears. To reload any of the saved finds, click and hold down the cursor on any word in the text, then drag the mouse to the Load Previous Find option and release. A dialog box listing all saved finds appears; select the one you want, then click ╥Load.╙ To delete a saved find, choose Utilities from the Books Menu. Then choose Delete Saved Find from the extended Books menu, and choose the word from the dialog box that appears.The program creates ╥Finds╙ folders that contain the lists you have saved. Do not rename these folders.Note: If you know you don╒t want to save a list of occurrences in a Find text window, hold down the Option key while clicking the close box. This avoids the Save dialog box; the window is then automatically closed without saving.
