Default use copy paste function in the find & replace box

In my language I need to use a special character which is very important.
Because it is used very often, I intend to use the find and replace box, but
I can't apply copy paste in the box and the character code doesn't work as
well. I noticed that with Excel 2007 it is possible, but with Excel 2003 I
can not do it, and my computer is a little old, so I can't install Office 2007
Can anyone help me solve the problem?

Thank you,


Shkendi

Try to produce this special character within "Word" and then copy/paste it
into "Excels" Find&Replace.

I'm able to use the keyboard shortcuts for copy and past in the find and
replace box. Use 'ctrl-c' to copy the text from inside the sheet, open the
find and replace dialogue box, and use 'ctrl-v' to paste. Give that a shot.
