FIND: Limiting the Strings

The FIND command finds all occurrences of the entire character string entered with the command, regardless of the kind of characters in the string.

You can control the kind of string to be matched by entering one of the following optional parameters:

CHARS

Finds any occurrence

PREFIX

Finds only the prefix to a word

SUFFIX

Finds only the suffix to a word

WORD

Finds only a complete word

When one of these limiting parameters is entered, the strings that CA View finds are limited to that type.

These types are described in the sections that follow.
