Q. Sometimes I want to search for a specific word or words in a document or webpage. Is there an easy way to do this?

A. When you are in a document, hold down the Control key (ctrl) on your keyboard and press F, this will bring up a
search box. Type your word into the search box and press return. The computer will search for the word in the document and highlight the first occurrence.

Depending on the operating system or application you are using, it may highlight the first occurrence and you may need to click on 'find next' to get the next occurrence, or it may highlight all occurrences.

On an Apple Mac computer, the keyboard combination is the Command key (cmd) and F. This search method also works for webpages. It makes it much quicker to move around documents and websites.
