  Replacing a Single Text String

  To replace a single text string:

  1.  Select the text you want to replace.  (The first time you
      want to make a substitution; for subsequent replacements
      Notepad selects the desired target for you.)

  2.  Choose Replace Once...  from the Search menu.

      Notepad searches from the current cursor position and
      highlights the first occurrence of the text.

  3.  Click on the Yes button to replace the text string.  Click on
      the No button if you decide not to replace the text string.
      Notepad then searches for the next occurrence of the text.

      Click on the Cancel button to stop the search procedure.
