The search "Find Next" with "wildcards" does not function properly

Concerning searches with wildcards in Microsoft Office Word 2003.
I am using the following characters in the search: [!.]@ and the
box "Use wildcards" is checked. Options: Search All.
I use two words, for example Friend[!.]@will and click on "find next"
I was searching a document with 397,000 words and with a Table of Contents
in the begginning; and 2,500 footnotes.
When I clicked on Find, sometimes it would not search or give any results at
all: not even a message that the search is completed.
Other times it would find several results of the search, and the next time I
click on "find" the search would return to the beginning of the
document. When I clicked again on "find" again, it does not want to search.
I do not get a message that the search was completed.
