I am completely baffled by where and how things are organized in Windows 7, I really liked XP.  BUT, so far so good with W7, and using the search box on the bottom of the start up menu for finding files etc. is just the BEST.

What I would like to know is where the "find on this page" utility is found on W7, where you could type in a word or name and it would highlight all the places that was found on the page. 

I know it will be simple after I know it, but I'm running out of ideas of where to look.
Thanks!

Hello Karen  Smiley

I am not exactly sure what you mean. There is a similar feature in Dreamweaver, MS Word and Firefox where you just type in a word and it will find the location of it on the page. But those are features of the software, not Windows.

Here is how the feature works in the newest version of Firefox.
