Tips for Effective Find and Replace

• Use "Find Only" first to preview matches before replacing
• Enable "Whole word only" to avoid partial matches (e.g., "cat" won't match "category")
• Test regex patterns on small samples before applying to large documents
• Keep a backup of original text before making bulk replacements
• Use case-sensitive mode when working with code or technical content
