40MODULE 5TEXT MANIPULATIONThis module introduces you to text manipulation features. These features are designed togive you maximum flexibility with a minimum of effort. You will be asked to perform tasks. When you come to the indented paragraphs, followthe instructions. PREREQUISITESCompletion of Module 4: EDITING OBJECTIVESAt the end of this module you will have learned:1.How to move text passages.2.How to copy a text passage.3.How to exchange one passage for another.4.How to use Find <>.5.How to use Substitute <> for <> and Confirm.Nf2p ga?Aa g@6 g>< g :vstsc:q $R:t+8& 4vvstst st#2e g.>.>L,t+v,t s&(#+L)tL%%Nv%ts-% 9%tL!,v!ts %3! /!t Ls>p0SL>L_5<DtLvut1s4=0LdL,RdtLBvBts "bBt( g>> vt(ztTVk([43COPYING TEXT PASSAGESThere may be times when you want a copy of a text passage to be positioned elsewherein the document. When making a copy of a passage, the passage remains in its originalposition in the document while a copy of that passage is transferred elsewhere.The SHIFT key has two functions. It provides upper case representation of all keys on thekeyboard and it also allows you to make a copy of text passages.The procedure to copy a text passage is the same as to move a passage except you holddown the SHIFT key instead of the MOVE key. To copy a text passage:Position the insertion caret to indicate where the copy will appear in thedocument after it has been copied.Hold down the SHIFT key while you select the passage to be copied. Includespaces and punctuation.Release the SHIFT key when the passage to be copied has been selected (dottedunderline). Insert spaces and/or punctuation where necessary.When copying passages, extend your selection to include any necessary spaces andpunctuation.)Delete the caret marker supplied in the examples below (this will position theinsertion caret properly).)Copy the bold underlined passage, Phase .)Repeat the delete and copy procedure until Phase appears before Twothrough Six.Phase One:Position the insertion caret (select and delete the caretmarker). &Two:Hold down the SHIFT key as you select the passage to becopied. &Three:Include spaces and punctuation in your selection wherenecessary.

Using the DO key to repeat deleting the caret marker and copying the same passage intoseveral locations would have decreased the time you spent by 50%!)Press the CANCL key. This will cancel the last delete and copy sequence. Thecaret marker should now appear before Six in the example above.)Select and delete Phase and copy the caret marker back into its originallocation. This is a reversal of the original exercise.)Use the DO key to repeat the deletion and copy sequence.Practice copying text, then continue on to the next section.EXCHANGING TEXT PASSAGESExchanging passages involves the use of both the MOVE and SHIFT (copy) keys. Whenexchanging one passage with another, you must select them both, but you cannot selectthem at the same time. Exchanging passages involves two selections.Select the first passage.Press and release the MOVE key. The cursor arrow should have a box at thebottom.Hold down the SHIFT key while you select the second passage (the one you willexchange for the first selection).When the passage to be exchanged is selected (dotted underline), release theSHIFT key.)Exchange the bold underlined passages within each sentence in the examplebelow. Use the four steps above to walk yourself through the exercise.Nf2pL_Nv_tstsust%]"LYvYt-WLRvSut&Qdut# gO >N9> gJtutJ gH: Cvtut(A: =vt s=yo!=t-;. 7~vtut. g3\< g,rsrsrs g(yt utut g&h #( g$W@) 5st)stut0))stutst0)).st) ut zvts B z% ztiATVk(45I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at the embankment andheaded over my mother-in-law.

This command is used when you wantto find specific characters or strings of characters, perhaps to locate a position within thedocument rapidly. When this command is used, the document is scrolled to the firstoccurrence of that word or string. The character or character string specified will beunderlined.To use the FIND command, scroll to the position in the document that you wish thesearch to begin. The search will start at the selected point indicated and proceedthrough the rest of the document. Select something (ie. a word) within the area you wishthe search to begin to place the blinking caret in front of the text to be searched.Nf2p g_>_>)[sts 5[; A[st)YbsY* $Ybt)U@s )U#2,U@ts3dU)S/)R gP>P> K1vtstst1I  Dvtstst @vt,ststs>t g:>:b>K6@st-V<K4/t-V<K2t-V< g/>.>)*st g&Q g"Frs g$t&st gstM g5 g 0 g g st/ g$) g "1 g QTVk("46In the blank after find, type the word(s) to be found.

You can have the system search for a word or series of words and replacethem with other words. This is called global search and replace. If you mark Confirm,the system will wait for you to Confirm that you want the substitution to occur in thatinstance. Otherwise the system will substitute in every place it finds the word(s).If you use Confirm, you will press DO if you want the substitution to occur; you will pressNEXT if you do not want that word(s) changed; you will press CANCL if you want thesubstitution to stop.When you use Subst, you must highlight the part of the document you want to besearched. If you want to Subst throughout the entire document, you would hold downthe Com key and touch the E.)Select the above three paragraphs)Type the word THE in the blank following Subst .
