Case Matching

  • The function can be set to match the case of the word or phrase, making the search case-sensitive
  • This means that 'Word' and 'word' would be considered different

Whole Word Matching

  • The Find and Replace function can also be set to match whole words only
  • This prevents partial matches from being considered, such as 'cat' in 'catalogue'
