With the Match Case cleared and Use Wildcards selected, is Search
supposed to be case sensitive? It is form.

With these setting searching for funny will not find Funny. When I
clear Use Wildcards, then it can find it.

Also,
No matter how many times I clear Use Wildcards it eventualy goes back
to on (w/o my intervention).

Possibly related to my very recent preceding post.

Thanks

Yes, wildcard search is always case-sensitive. You can use the special
syntax of wildcards to make case-insensitive search expressions -- for
your example, try [fF]unny as the search term.

The other problem is definitely not normal. Try pursuing Klaus's
suggestion to look for interference from a macro.

Yes, that was it.
