      Could anyone assist?

      I’ve noticed a few lower case i being used instead of a capital I in a book I’m publishing but when i go to find and change it offers me all of the lower case i’s in words?

      I only want to change them singularly such as “i want to go for a cup of tea” to “I want to go for a cup off tea”

      Did you try searching for an i followed by a space?

      Dieter, thanks this did the trick although it didn’t distinguish between the lowercase & uppercase I but just changed them all and seems to have done the trick, thanks again:-)

      You need to set two checkboxes (actually icons) in the Find text dialog that are un-set by default: Case Sensitive (the Aa icon) and Whole Word (the rightmost icon). Both show their purpose when you hover the mouse over them.

      See also https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/find-change.html under Search options for finding and changing text.
