Default Center won't work in FIND

This is but one of many reasons that paragraph styles are developed to
handle formatting consistently.

With a copy of your document, try formatting your entire document red. Then
use a find and replace to format all paragraphs that are currently centered
with centered text that is colored automatically. Then search for red text.

I'm using Word XP. I want to find certain items that are NOT
centered. In the FIND box, I can click "Control + Center" and it
shows "centered". But when I click "Control + Center" again, it just
goes blank. It should show "Not Centered."

Can anybody help?
