Default Search stuck in case sensitive mode

Yes, wildcard search is always case-sensitive. You can use the special
syntax of wildcards to make case-insensitive search expressions -- for
your example, try [fF]unny as the search term.

The other problem is definitely not normal. Try pursuing Klaus's
suggestion to look for interference from a macro.

With the Match Case cleared and Use Wildcards selected, is Search
supposed to be case sensitive? It is form.


With these setting searching for funny will not find Funny. When I
clear Use Wildcards, then it can find it.


Also,
No matter how many times I clear Use Wildcards it eventualy goes back
to on (w/o my intervention).


Possibly related to my very recent preceding post.


Thanks


Yes, that was it.
Thanks
