I want to be able to find and replace eat
with Eat
in Microsoft Word 2007. However, I don’t want to replace every occurrence of eat
such as those that can be found inside other words such as great
and meat
.
I have tried doing this using the regular Find and Replace tool, but I get words with capital letters in the middle.
Is there a way I can just replace eat
with Eat
if it only exists on its own?
