Default Find multiple words in cell?

Thanks Bob. I think I led you down the wrong path. I was using the "Find"
feature and did a "Find All" on the word "Development". It listed all the
rows that had a cell containing that word. I then tried to enter "Development
AND JVM" along with other variations but the Find function doesn't like
multiple words. I'll try the programmatic replies that you and others gave
but I think I'm in for some more work than I imagined.

Thanks again for your quick response.

I hate to even ask but is it possible to find if two or more words are
found
in a text cell.

For example I want to find if a particular cell contains the words
"development" AND "JVM"

Thank you.
