Hello,

I want to search for a word in a document (Find function). I would like to apply a specific style to it. How can I automatically select all occurrences of the searched word (not highlight them) so that I can modify their style at once? For example, I have the word "chalet" 50 times in my document and I want to apply a specific style to all of them. Instead of selecting them manually one by one, is there an option for the Find function to select them all? Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello,

You open the Find and Replace dialog (Ctrl + h).

Find: you type the word "chalet" for example
Replace: you type the same word, click on the "More" button, click on Format at the bottom, and choose your style.
Be careful, it must be a character style, not a paragraph style.
Or a manual format (color, bold, etc.).
