Default replacing capital with lowe case letter

hi all,

office 2003 pro sp2, wxp pro sp2,

i wanted to replace Spontaneous with spontaneous, i used Find and Replace
function where Find - Spontaneous and Replace with - spontaneous but it
doesn't work! the word stayed as it was!! thinking laterally, i tried
replacing it first with spontan then replacing it again to spontaneous, as a
work around, which worked. is there something that i am missing or not doing
right in the first instance?

appreciate advice on this matter.

thank you,
jes

Click More, then check the 'Match Case' checkbox. Confusingly, this controls
the case of both the matching and the replacement.
