Default VBA Find function does not work for merged cells. Potential BUG

As per this thread

http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...a-1ed27880f1b5



set r = .Find(" - Open Positions ( August 03, 2007 )")

returns nothing even though there is cell with that value

The only peculiarity of that cell is that is merged with others

Is the find function not supposed to work for merged cells?

Thanks,

Antonio


Code and sheet follows:

Sub main()

Dim r As Range

Dim match_address As String


Dim st As String


st = Worksheets(1).Range("A3").Value



With Worksheets(1).Columns("A")



Set r = .Find(st)

If Not r Is Nothing Then

match_address = r.Address



End If

End With

End Sub
