Yes, you do need to be careful. However in this CA->California case, that search and replace worked flawlwssly for me when I checked the "Find whole word only flag".

Also, whenever I do a search and replace, I go through a number of "Replace" to confirm the results will be as intended before I click "Replace All".

I also have used it many times. Have to be careful, though, as I wanted CA searched and replaced with California. I got some very interesting place names and had to do more search and replace of those misspellings; i.e., CA became CACAlifornia, CACatanzaro, CACarolina, etc. I had to smile every time I saw one of these misspellings. No big deal, actually.
