This is a very useful tool when you need to review a very large presentation or correct the same error in multiple places in the slide.

Finding Content

Here are the steps to find content in PowerPoint.

Step (1): In the Home tab, under the Editing section click on Find

Step (2): Type the text you want to search in the "Find what:" field.

Step (3): You can narrow your search by selecting "Match Case" - to find exact case match - and "Find whole words only" - to find whole words and not words where typed word is just a part of the word.

Step (4): Press on "Find Next" to find the next occurrence of the search word.

Step (5): The Find dialog does not disappear after finding the first instance, so you can keep pressing "Find Next" multiple times till you reach the end of the search. At this point you will receive a message from PowerPoint indicating the end of the search.
