Why does the Edit Find feature in Excel not work?
 

Whe I go to Edit Find to locate a specific number in my Excel spreadsheet
it says that it did not find it, yet the number is there. What might be
wrong? Thanks

Why does the Edit Find feature in Excel not work?
 

It may be a formatting issue. For example, if you have 15 in a cell, but the
cell is formatted as Currency, you might see $ 15.00 displayed. A search for
15.00 would not result in anything being found since only 15 is actually
stored in the cell not 15.00.

If you still need help, perhaps post back with an example of the data you're
trying to find.
