The Find command searches for text in most Fetch windows.

When you choose the Find command, the Find window appears. Enter the text you want to search for in the Find window's edit field.

When a transfer window is active, Find searches through the displayed item names for the desired text. When a text window (including the Fetch Transcript window) is active, Find searches the displayed text. When a shortcut list window (including the Fetch Shortcuts window) is active, Find searches the names and other properties of the shortcuts.

Two checkboxes in the Find window can change how it searches for text:

• Ignore case - When this box is checked, searches are not case sensitive; for example, searching for "dog" will match "dog," "Dog," or "DOG." When this box is unchecked, only exact matches for capitalization are found. Checked by default.
• Match entire words - When this box is checked, searches will only match words that are not part of other words; for example, "dog" will not match "doghouse." When this box is unchecked, text searches will match parts of words; for example, "dog" will match "dog," "doghouse," or "boondoggle." Unchecked by default.

If the first match isn't what you were looking for, use the Find Again command to find the next match. You can also return to the Find window and click the Find button again to find the next match.

The Find command only searches the names of items currently displayed in the file list; it does not search the contents of folders in the file list. If you're looking for a file and aren't sure where on the server it is, the Search command may be able to search all files on a server and help you find it.
