application.Dialogs(xlDialogFormulaFind).Show

From help: (Built-In Dialog Box Argument Lists)
xlDialogFormulaFind text, in_num, at_num, by_num, dir_num, match_case,
match_byte

Bridget,

I can't find it either in the "Built-In Dialog Box Argument Lists" in
the vba help file. However, the following code does bring it up...

Application.CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=30003).Con trols
("Find...").Exec

If
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrint).Show
brings up the print dialogue box in E2K, can someone pls
tell me what brings up the Find box? I did a search for
this on the net, but nothing came up. I guess I don't
know how to search for general VB coding like this; I
don't even know if there is a resource out there for
hunting down VB code (?).

Thanks so much!
