If you press the Options button on the Find window, you can search within
specific columns. In your case I guess you would want to search only in
columns 19-20.

Please respond to
CODE400-L
I tried both the double and single quote. What I am finding right now is
that if I want to find a character string other than blanks, I can enter
the
string and it finds it.
Right now I am trying to insert prefixes in front of fields names in DDS. I
need to specify the blank because I want to insert it at Position 19. The
character string in 19 & 20 where I am inserting may be repeated in the
field and some attempts I have made have inserted the prefix two or three
times in the name which is undesirable.
I know there are no blanks in the name so if I scan for <space>PC it will
get the beginning of the field name.
I have tried both single and double quotes around it like we used to do in
SEU, and I have tried <space> PC like someone suggested, and I tried just
typing in a space. I had the same result each time "string - not found".
Thanks for any input you may have
Dwight @ Ruger
