When using WPS Find, the most common questions are about missing results, replacement scope, and where to open the feature; this FAQ covers 3 common questions and practical steps.
FAQ
Why are there no results after I enter a keyword?
- Check whether you opened the correct spreadsheet file or worksheet.
- Confirm that the keyword matches the text in the cells.
- Try a shorter keyword first, then narrow down the target content step by step.
What should I check before using Replace All?
- Confirm that the search text matches only the content you want to change.
- If needed, use Replace once first to review the effect.
- After confirming the result, use Replace All to avoid changing too much content at once.
What can I do if I cannot find the Find and Replace entry?
- Confirm that the file is already open in spreadsheet editing view.
- Check the top-right “☰” menu, or open the bottom Tools area.
- If the layout looks different, switch to the related view tools group and look for the entry again.
