Finding words in transcripts

When you need to locate records containing a specific word or phrase, use the Find feature to search case content.

You also have the option to search for text that is case sensitive or is a particular groups of words. Selecting case sensitive provides matches of the text when certain characters are capitalized. Selecting the Match whole word only option allows you to search for a particular word or phrase. For example, if you want to find every occurrence of the whole word "John" in a field, TextMap locates all instances of both "John" and "Johnson".

When searching for data using the Find feature, you are limited to searching one transcript at a time. TextMap retains the last search you used in the Find dialog box for one user session. When you close TextMap and reopen it, the Find dialog box will be empty.
