I am guessing by your post that you are running different platform?
if this is so, sorry but not able to assist you any further.



Unfortunately the first one locks finds nothingm, but locks Excel.
The second fails in line 2

Application.CommandBars("Edit").Controls("Find..." ).Execute

with an runt-time error 5: Invalid procedure call or agument.

However, see if one of these two approaches helps you.


Sub aaa()

Application.Dialogs(xlDialogFormulaReplace).Show

End Sub

Sub bbb()

Application.CommandBars.FindControl(ID:=1849).Exec ute
Application.CommandBars("Edit").Controls("Find..." ).Execute

End Sub


Is the a way to open the Search and replay dialog?

Application.Dialogs(xlDialogSearch).Show

opens the Filesearch task, and I haven't been able to locate any
xldialog keyword for the search and replace.
