Why doesn't the Find function work in some documents
I have certain documents in which I can not get the Find function to work
properly. The Find and Replace window comes up and everything looks OK but I'll enter a word that I know is in the document several times and it tells me it can't find the word in the document. I checked the advance settings and everything seems OK. Is there a setting or something that disables Find? |

Why doesn't the Find function work in some documents
Is that through the Protect Document function? How do I check if it's
affecting Find?

Use the protect document option from the menu. it may find the word but
because the section is protected it may not allow you to replace it. -- Pranav Vaidya VBA Developer PN, MH-India If you think my answer is useful, please rate this post as an ANSWER!!
