Parameters

NameRequired/OptionalData typeDescription

MatchCaseOptionalVariantTrue to specify that the find text be case-sensitive. Corresponds to the Match case check box in the Find and Replace dialog box (Edit menu).

ForwardOptionalVariantTrue to search forward (toward the end of the document).
WrapOptionalVariantControls what happens if the search begins at a point other than the beginning of the document and the end of the document is reached (or vice versa if Forward is set to False). This argument also controls what happens if there is a selection or range and the search text is not found in the selection or range. Can be one of the WdFindWrap constants.

Return value

Boolean

Remarks

If MatchWildcards is True, you can specify wildcard characters and other advanced search criteria for the FindText argument. For example, '*(ing)' finds any word that ends in 'ing'.

To search for a symbol character, type a caret (^), a zero (0), and then the symbol's character code. For example, '^0151' corresponds to an em dash (—).

Unless otherwise specified, replacement text inherits the formatting of the text it replaces in the document. For example, if you replace the string 'abc' with 'xyz', occurrences of 'abc' with bold formatting are replaced with the string 'xyz' with bold formatting.

Also, if MatchCase is False, occurrences of the search text that are uppercase will be replaced with an uppercase version of the replacement text, regardless of the case of the replacement text. Using the previous example, occurrences of 'ABC' are replaced with 'XYZ'.

Example

This example finds and selects the next occurrence of the word 'library'.

How did Scrabble Word Finder start?

Back in 2010, there was a giant surge in interest in the gmae of Scrabble on sites like Facebook, and eventually withmassively popular games likeWords with Friends createdby Zynga.

While we were playing Scrabble games with our friends, we had the natural urge to cheat and found that the wordunscrambler sites out on the internet were low quality, slow and had terrible results - an idea was born! One of thefirst things we added was ourwords with friends cheat,and as that became popular we added word definitions, synonyms, anagrams, and other word generator languageoptions to help visitors from other countries.

The cheat tool allows you to find words by entering your letters, including using question marks as wildcards touse in place of blank tiles in the game. The advanced options let you enter prefixes to pick words that start withcertain letters, and suffixes for words that end with different letters. When you search, the word finder toolwill find new words for the letters you have entered and from there you get the option to see what the word means,whether it will work in different word games, and lots of other options to help you win more games!

The average Scrabble player needs a little help now and then, but placing the tiles are on you - pick the bestbonus spot (preferably a triple word score!) on the board and maximise your point value, while blocking youropponents.
