Search - want main document only, not headers & footers

[bwesson]

I was doing searches (text). Between checking email, etc. something changed
the search parameters so it now searches headers & footers as well. I now
requires extra clicking & time. How do I return it to main document only?

Hi B.,

You didn't mention the version of Word you're using, but in Word using Ctrl+F to bring up the find dialog, you should be able to
choose 'Main Document' as the search area if you're in Word 2003 or Word 2007.
