Yes, it's a great time saver. You can also find it under the "Edit" button, upper left corner, next to "File". I don't think ctrl-F works with Adobe files (PDF files/webpages). No shortcut there that I know of.

I just found the neatest little thing for searching LONG documents, pedigrees, or speeches. You hit control then the letter f and it gives you a box to fill out where you can put a name or word and it will look for them over and over again. Talking about a helpful shortcut. *smile* WOW. --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!?
