"Find" in Excel '03 - no keyboard key for closing dial.box like in
 

I prefer using keyboard shortcuts rather than the mouse. We just upgraded to
Office 2003 and I find it very frustrating trying to close the dialog box
everytime I use the "Find" or "Replace" function.
I used to find what I was looking for and then hit "tab" & "enter" to close
the dialog box. With Excel 2003 that now takes me to "Format" instead. Every
other button on this box has a alt-letter assigned except the close button,
which means I either have to tab several times to get to the close button or
us the mouse to close it.
Not efficient!

"Find" in Excel '03 - no keyboard key for closing dial.box like in
 

How about pressing the escape key (Esc)?
