How to find only part of a common word?

Post by kindool »

Hi all. In a folder of 120 Word documents, I'm trying to find and replace just the word 'black' but AFR 7.8.1 keeps throwing up blackface, blacktown, blacktop, blackmail etc.

How can I do a search for just 'black'?

But that doesn't work with AFR.

Help, please :-)

You should check Whole Words search option. That's all.
