Default problem with find and replace

Have you clicked on the More button in the Find and Replace dialog and
checked the Match case box?

After doing that here, Sandhill crane is replaced by sandhill crane when
those words are inserted into the Find what and Replace with controls
respectively.

I've got about 170 uses of the word Sandhill crane in one doc. I am
trying to change to sandhill crane (no caps), but find and replace will
not do it. I tried replacing "Sandhill crane" with "custard" and then
replacing "custard" with "sandhill crane" but no go. Each time it tells
me it's made the replacements but keeps giving me the S in caps. Any
ideas?

Thanks,
Grus
