Default Crashes when find is used (and specific situations)

Here's the situation.

Excel 2003 crashes:
-Only one specific workbook
-When find (within the workbook, not sheet) is used
-When a record is not found

Please Help!

Sounds like a corrupted workbook. Experimentally delete sheets to narrow
down the problem?

That is normal in 07 you have to deal with situation that none will be found.
You can do many things typically my finds are in an if statement and that
can solve the problem for. I also sometimes use the on error resume next if
there is not a problem wtih the rest of the code if nothing is found.

I solved it in the most odd manner (after trying pretty much everything)...

I used find in the workbook (but looked in the sheet, not workbook). It
found the person. I saved, closed and then reopend the workbook and was able
to use find (to look in the workbook) without it crashing...

Vodoo computing!
