when I do a search using the search box -- ctrl f...

I type in "God's" and nothing shows up--the search box turns red

However, I happen to see the word "God's" in the document. I copy and paste it and walla!  I have all kinds of results.

(I am searching in the book God’s Devil: The Incredible Story of How Satan's Rebellion Serves God's Purposes. I tried it in a few other books. Some worked; others did not.)

I am thinking that maybe there is more than one character that displays as an apostrophe.

Thoughts?

    You are correct. The find routine is "dumb" basically a character by character match. And inline search should work.
