WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS

Problem

Symptoms: If an attribute code is in a search string, it will be replaced with the word exactly how it was typed in the replace string. For example, a document has occurrences of the word Cat in bold that need to be replaced with the word Dog without bolding (notice that both cat and dog are capitalized). The Search/Replace feature is used to search for [BOLD]cat[bold] and replace with the word dog. When the search is complete, all instances of the word dog are in lowercase letters. If the search string is "cat" without the bold codes, then "dog" will be capitalized. A work around is to use a capital D in the replace string. The same problem occurs if the replace string contains attribute on and off codes. Solutions: Status:      Sent to Development
