1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,965
A company changes its name, and a Word document contains four

2
00:00:03,965 --> 00:00:05,732
copies of the old name.

3
00:00:05,732 --> 00:00:10,323
Three describe current work, but one is part of a historical archive label.

4
00:00:10,323 --> 00:00:12,796
Replace All would change that archive too.

5
00:00:12,796 --> 00:00:16,682
We will paste a fictional note into Word for the web,

6
00:00:16,682 --> 00:00:21,627
review each match, replace only three, and verify that one intentional old reference remains.

7
00:00:22,227 --> 00:00:26,426
Download the short practice text and paste it into a blank

8
00:00:26,426 --> 00:00:28,335
Word for the web document.

9
00:00:28,335 --> 00:00:33,679
The current event host is Northstar Events in the opening, contact, and closing lines.

10
00:00:33,679 --> 00:00:38,260
A fourth instance labels a twenty-twenty-four archive, which must stay

11
00:00:38,260 --> 00:00:40,169
unchanged as a historical name.

12
00:00:40,169 --> 00:00:43,987
This exact distinction makes a blind document-wide replacement unsafe.

13
00:00:44,587 --> 00:00:48,624
In Word for the web, open the document and choose Home,

14
00:00:48,624 --> 00:00:51,193
then Replace, or use Control plus H.

15
00:00:51,193 --> 00:00:53,762
Search for the exact phrase Northstar Events.

16
00:00:53,762 --> 00:00:56,698
Enter Cedar Grove Events in the replacement box.

17
00:00:56,698 --> 00:01:00,735
Microsoft says Word for the web supports basic find and replace.

18
00:01:00,735 --> 00:01:04,772
Do not click Replace All for this exercise because one match

19
00:01:04,772 --> 00:01:06,240
has a different meaning.

20
00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,088
Move through the matches and read each surrounding sentence.

21
00:01:10,088 --> 00:01:13,696
Replace the opening event-host line and the contact line.

22
00:01:13,696 --> 00:01:18,748
When you reach the archive label, choose the next match without changing that text.

23
00:01:18,748 --> 00:01:20,913
Replace the final current-host line.

24
00:01:20,913 --> 00:01:24,883
The order of matches may follow your cursor position, so decide

25
00:01:24,883 --> 00:01:28,131
by context rather than by a memorized click count.

26
00:01:28,731 --> 00:01:33,666
Search the whole practice document for Cedar Grove Events and count three occurrences.

27
00:01:33,666 --> 00:01:38,602
Then search for Northstar Events and count one, in the archive label only.

28
00:01:38,602 --> 00:01:42,778
Read the edited paragraphs aloud once to make sure the company

29
00:01:42,778 --> 00:01:44,676
name still fits the sentence.

30
00:01:44,676 --> 00:01:49,232
This two-sided check is stronger than trusting a replacement notification alone.

31
00:01:49,832 --> 00:01:54,429
Replace All is useful when every match truly needs the same change.

32
00:01:54,429 --> 00:01:58,643
In this practice note, it would also rename a historical label

33
00:01:58,643 --> 00:02:00,558
and make the record inaccurate.

34
00:02:00,558 --> 00:02:04,389
Word for the web supports basic text replacement; advanced matching

35
00:02:04,389 --> 00:02:06,688
features can vary from desktop Word.

36
00:02:06,688 --> 00:02:10,902
Use the simple reviewed workflow and keep an untouched copy if

37
00:02:10,902 --> 00:02:12,434
the real document matters.

38
00:02:13,034 --> 00:02:17,111
The practice text and answer check show exactly which three lines

39
00:02:17,111 --> 00:02:19,335
change and which archive line stays.

40
00:02:19,335 --> 00:02:23,412
The viewer can create a blank document, paste the text, and

41
00:02:23,412 --> 00:02:26,377
test the workflow without using real business content.

42
00:02:26,377 --> 00:02:30,454
These diagrams explain the expected state; this source package does not

43
00:02:30,454 --> 00:02:34,531
claim a recorded Word session or a verified live replacement yet.
