Hi All,

I want to use my Iphone for writing long documents, such as the Active
Elements reviews, and for reading text manuals.  This means I often want to
search for a string and start editing or reading at that position in the
document.  This is something I do in Word or Notepad all the time.

I'm struggling to do this with any of the WP apps I've tried in IOS.  I've
tried 'Documents' which is a WP app which allows searching, but the Search
mode is separate from the edit mode, and so I can't search for a string and
commence editing at that point.

I've tried Voice Dream Reader, and this is great for reading books, but does
not have a Search option within the Editor, and does not have the fine line
by line control needed for reading technical material.

Am I trying to do something that IOS just doesn't do?

Best wishes, Kelvin Marsh - M0AID
