Find It Again and Again and Again

If you use MS Word's Find feature are you aware that you can locate the same text phrase multiple times? It is possible to leave the window open to use the Find Next button repeatedly The inconvenience of the open window is worth it when compared to the "starting over" method, isn't it?! However, there is another option. For the first Find of the text, proceed as usual:- (Open the Find window, enter the text you're seeking and hit Enter). After Word locates the text the first time, click the Cancel button. Worry not all is lost. Take a look at the vertical scroll bar where you will find a series of buttons.

Usually, the up and down arrows are black. However, when you clicked the Cancel button, they turn blue. That blue colour is Word's indication that it can still look for your text string. The blue up arrow will find the next occurrence of the text above your current location and the blue down arrow will find the next occurrence of the text below your current location. So, as you can see, you can continue with a repeated text search, without having to tolerate that open Find window. A little bit of blue is the clue. Forgive the pun
