This section provides tips for searching hidden text, expanding or limiting your search scope, and using regular expressions.
The Find And Replace window provides a way to enable or disable searching within hidden text.
You can select the scope of your search, including the current code block, the current document, all open documents, the current project, and the entire solution.
You can search using either wildcards or regular expressions in the Find And Replace window.
In the Find And Replace window, expand the Find Options node and check the Use check box. This option enables you to select either wildcards or regular expressions.
Now that little grayed-out arrow, which is called an expression builder and is located next to the Find What text box, is enabled. In case you’re like me and don’t use regular expressions all that often, the expression builder can be a great little cheat sheet.
Note that the editor’s regular expressions engine is slightly different from the .NET Framework regular expressions engine; hence, the cheat sheet may really come in handy.
