Here are two ways...

1) Group the sheets before using the Find command. To group sheets, click on
the tab of the first sheet, then click on additional sheet tabs while holding
down the Ctrl key. Or, click on the first sheet tab, then click on the sheet
tab furthest from that sheet while holding down the Shift key.

2) In the Find and replace dialog, click the Options button on the Find tab.
Change the 'Within' box option to Workbook.

Hope this helps,

Hutch
