    • Whole words only - is used to find only the occurrences that are the complete words, not parts of another word (e.g. if your inquiry is 'edit' and this option is selected, such words as 'editor' or 'editing' etc. will not be found).
  3. Click one of the arrow buttons on the right. The search will be performed either towards the beginning of the worksheet (if you click the Search Up button button) or towards the end of the worksheet (if you click the Search Down button button) from the current position.
