On the Basic tab under Target, set the value of the Ignore Spaces property to
True.
Spaces will be ignored when looking for the target.
The search is now configured and can be tested.
Note The value of the Search Type property on the Main tab will default to “1 -
Target.” By selecting the property and clicking the list of search types (target and
anchor-target) will be displayed. For this data there is not a reliable anchor for the
target across the range of documents so a target search is needed.
The target being searched for is a regular expression rather than a specific value. If it
was a specific value (such as the word “account”) this would be entered as the value
of the Target property, and the value of the Target Type property would need
changing to “1 – Text.”
X To test a target search for the date,
click the Test Current Search button to test
the search.
