If no text files have been chosen, you are asked to choose some. Press the Choose Texts Now button.        

 

choose_texts_button        

 

Once the texts have been chosen, enter a suitable Search Word:

Here I have chosen wherefore as my search-word. Then press OK.

The concordance lists all the examples of "wherefore" which had a word-separator such as punctuation, space etc. before and after it.
