    Question

    Which one is NOT the method to search for and replace text in Microsoft Word?

    A.

    Press Ctrl + H to open the Find and Replace window

    B.

    Click on Alt + Enter key

    C.

    Click 'Edit' and then select 'Find and Replace'.

    D.

    Go to the 'Home' tab and select 'Replace'.

    Correct option is B

    The correct answer is (b) Click on Alt + Enter key

    Explanation:

    • In Microsoft Word, text search and replace can be done using several standard commands and navigation tools, but Alt + Enter is not one of them.
    • Alt + Enter is commonly used in other applications (like Excel) to insert a new line within a cell, but it does not perform find-and-replace in Word.

    Information Booster:

    • Ctrl + H: Opens the Find and Replace dialog box directly—most commonly used shortcut.
    • Edit > Find and Replace: Available in older versions of MS Word (pre-2007); this method allows you to access the feature through the menu.
    • Home Tab > Replace: In newer versions (Word 2007 and later), the Replace option is present in the Editing group on the Home tab.

    Additional Information:

    • Alt + Enter may perform other functions depending on context, but it is not related to text search or replacement in Word.
    • Advanced Find and Replace features include match case, find whole words only, and replace formatting or special characters.
    • This function is essential in editing long documents for consistency, corrections, and formatting changes.
