Default Excel Find Macro Help Needed

Forgot to mention that I'm using Excel XP.

I currently do the following steps to find all the occurrences of an entry
in a multi sheet Excel spreadsheet.

I'm looking for suggestions on modifying the macro to include the

operations in step 3. All my attempts at
doing so have been unsuccessful. Any help would be much appreciated.

Step 1) Select a cell having the desired entry.

Step 2) < Ctrl-F to run the following macro. (Copies the entry,

selects all the sheets and brings up the Find dialog box)

Macro
Sub MultiFind()
Selection.Copy
Worksheets.Select
Cells.Select
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogFormulaFind).Show
Cells(1).Select
End Sub

Step 3) < Ctrl-V to paste the selected entry to the Find dialog box.

< Enter & < Enter to display the next occurance of

the selected entry.

Step 4) < Enter as required to display remaining entries.
