Default Finding cells that contain an apostrophe

I am trying to locate cells that contain an apostrophe as the first character
in the cell. When using Excel's Find command, I input "'" (double quotes,
apostrophe, double quotes) as the search criteria, but Excel can't seem to
find any (even though I know for a fact that there are cells that contain an
apostrophe).
Can anyone tell me what search criteria I should be using?
Thanks,
Bob
