The following macro will select all cells that display 79.00

Sub find_79()
v = "79.00"
Dim r As Range
Dim rf As Range
Set rf = Nothing
For Each r In ActiveSheet.UsedRange
If r.Text = v Then
If rf Is Nothing Then
Set rf = r
Else
Set rf = Union(rf, r)
End If
End If
Next
If rf Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
rf.Select
End Sub

Is there any way to get the Find function to locate numeric values?
i.e. cells are formatted as Numbers with a comma separator for thousands and brackets for
negative values.
ex 1,079.00
A search for 79.00 returns any cell with 79.00 (179.00), 1,079.00 etc.

If I try an exact match (Match Entire Cell Contents) it finds nothing - I'm assuming because
of
the sign byte.
