Special Characters

Global Office Find And Replace has a special facility for special characters such as trademark symbol (™), or Copyright character (©) etc.

Special symbols can be used in 2 places: Parameter Entry screen (Text Find & Replace) and Document Properties.

If you want to insert a Special Character in text to find or text to replace, click on the “OPT” (options) drop down next to the appropriate text box (either the find or the replace text box). From the menu select “Special Character”. A new window (“Special Character / Symbol”) will pop up which will let you select whatever special character you desire to find or replace. When you click “Select” next to a character, that special character will be added to the end of the text in the text box and the window closes. Click “Cancel” to close the window without adding anything.

Simple!
