Finding Information
With Your WorkPad
This chapter explains how to locate information on
your IBM WorkPad PC companion with the Find
command and the Phone Lookup command.
Using the Find Command
The Find command locates any text that you specify and is available
in any WorkPad application. You can search for whole words or the
beginning letters of a word. The Find command automatically
searches all the data on your WorkPad and lists which applications
contain the text.
For example, suppose you want to find a particular name, but aren’t
sure where you stored it. The Find command immediately lists all
instances of that name and enables you to jump directly to the name.
To use the Find command:
1. Tap the
icon from any WorkPad application to open the Find
dialog.
Tip:
If you select text in a WorkPad application before you tap
the Find button, the selected text automatically appears in
the Find dialog.
2. Enter the text that you want to find in your WorkPad.
Note:
The Find command is not case-sensitive. In other words,
searching for the name “davidson” also finds
“Davidson.” The Find command also searches the
contents of notes.
3. Tap the OK button to display a list of all instances of the text that
you specified.
