Finding and Correcting Text

Visio 2007 can correct spelling or find and replace all uses of particular words. You can specify whether you want Visio 2007 to search a selection, a page, or the whole diagram. When you search for or check the spelling of text, Visio 2007 searches in all shapes, including these:

  • Text-only shapes

  • Data fields

  • Stencils

  • Custom property fields

  • Text you enter in the Properties dialog box

To search for shapes, type your criteria into the search window located above the Shapes window. You can locate shapes by using names or keywords. For details, see the section titled “Finding the Right Shape” in Chapter 2, “Quickly Formatting Shapes and Designs.”
