Can anyone help me as to what to I need to enter in the find box to select a single T rather than t as part of a word.
Two easy ways of doing it:

1. Tools > Spellcheck > Spellcheck. Use the "Search" box up top to search for T, and use the "Change Selected Word To" box on the right side to change it to I.

2. Search > Find & Replace. Search for "SPACE + T + SPACE". Replace with "SPACE + I + SPACE". Then do another search for many other edge cases.

I would personally go with #1, because it's easy, and because you'll probably spot lots of other "T" typos as well.
