find is not working in workspace.

When i try to find a string using Edit --> Find (Ctrl+F) in workspace it is not working properly. Test Complete is highlighting different word or unrelated strings.

 

Please find the below image for more details.

    All I can report is that, attempting the same thing in my own projects (multiple projects, multiple project suites, multiple languages,etc) is not running into that error.  So, it is not a general bug in TestComplete.

    Now... I HAVE experienced this in the past and usually it happens if TestComplete gets in some sort of weird state because of some previous errors or whatever in executing script code.  What I did to correct it is close ALL open editor windows in TestComplete, save my project/project suite, close TC and then re-open.  That usually resolved it.

        But that is a general bug in TestComplete.  I have seen the same thing in TC for a long time.  Pretty sure I even reported it.
