Search and Replace is a common feature in text editing and word processing software that allows users to find specific words or phrases in a document and replace them with new ones. This tool is useful for correcting typos, updating terminology, or making consistent changes throughout a document without having to manually search for each instance. The process typically involves entering the word or phrase you want to find, followed by the new word or phrase you want to use as a replacement. Once initiated, the software scans the document and makes the changes automatically, saving time and effort for the user.
