Search for Strings and Labels

You can also search for and display a character string by typing a FIND string NEXT/PREV command on the command line or option 9 (Search forward) or 10 (Search backward) in the Option # field and typing the character string in the Search field. For example, the following screen illustrates how you would search backward for the string custname.
