I spent many years in a UNIX environment, where it was common to use regular expressions on text files. That was some time ago, and with CRS, there are only a few features I can use without documentation. (sigh)

>>Which is exactly why I would use a regular expression to do the searching (in Code References, where it is available) which allows you to catch all of the various combinations.

>>I've always thought that the absence of regular expressions in the Ctrl+F for methods to be a serious mistake.

>>>>I also tend to do searches, whether it be using Code References or Ctrl+F, and the second syntax makes assignments harder to find. (I can search for 'x = ' easily enough, but it's much harder to see how to search for assignments using the second alternative.)
>>>
>>>Actually, searching for "x=" is equally easy as searching for "x =" and "x{tab}="... and all three are valid, and (depending on coding style) more or less possible to find in code. So instead of three, you need to search for four.

>>>But I'd never search for x=. Too short a name for a variable.
