Consider the following scenario. You have a Unicode build of a Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC) application. The MFC application uses a CRichEditView class in Microsoft Visual C++ .NET 2003. You select text, and then press CTRL+F in the Unicode build of the MFC application. In this scenario, only the first character is filled in in the Find what box. However, if the application is a multi-byte character sets (MBCS) build, all the selected text is filled in in the Find what box when you select text and then press CTRL+F.

Note The Find what box is on the Find tab in the Find and Replace dialog box.
