How to search for automated numbering

[Rachel Whitcomb]

Hello

I am using Word 2000 and have created a document that uses automated numbering. The automated numbers is used several times. In other words, there is a section of items numbered AO1, AO2, AO3... and then a set number R1, R2, R3... and then a set numbered DL1, DL2, DL3..

Because I have other documents and notes referencing these numbers, I would like to be able to search for the numbered item. I have found the the standard "find" does not find any matches when I search for AO2. Is there some way to do this

Thanks, Rachel
