Declaration

Options is a
TFindOptions property which contains the
set of find / replace options enabled for the dialog. The set type contains
zero (0) or more values from the TFindOption enumeration. The default value
for the property is [frDown] and indicates the search direction in the dialog.
Changing the values in the property causes the controls on the dialog form to be updated (when assigned). For example:
- frEntireScope
- Causes the EntireScope check box to become checked.
- frWholeWord
- Causes the WholeWordsOnly check box to become checked.
- frMatchCase
- Causes the CaseSensitive check box to become checked.
Other values in Options control whether controls on the dialog form are visible or enabled, and are applied when the SetFormValues method is called. These include:
- frDown
- Causes the DirectionRadioGroup box to be set to the Down radio button.
- frDisableWholeWord
- Causes the WholeWordsOnly check box to be disabled (Enabled = False) when present.
- frDisableMatchCase
- Causes the CaseSensitive check box to be disabled (Enabled = False) when present.
- frDisableUpDown

- frHideWholeWord
- Causes the WholeWordsOnly check box be hidden (Visible = False) when present.

Values in Options are updated in the GetFormValues method, which is called when the Find button is clicked on the dialog form. The Option values affected include:
- frDown
- Added or removed based the radio button select in the Direction radio group.
