Using Find

You can use Find to locate any text that you specify, in any application that resides
on your handheld. Find does not search applications that reside on an expansion
card.

To use Find:

1.

Tap the Find icon

.

TIP

If you select text in an application before you tap Find, the selected text

automatically appears in the Find dialog box.

2.

Enter the text that you want to find.

Find is not case sensitive. For example, searching for the name “davidson” also
finds “Davidson.”

Find locates any words that begin with the text you enter. For example,
searching for “plane” finds “planet” but not “airplane.”

3.

Tap OK.

Find searches for the text in all records and all notes.
