Default Range.Find gets slow

I didn't 'find' any noticeable difference but an accurate timer showed it
was perhaps marginally faster to search in formulas than values.

But for me, I couldn't tell the difference between searching through

formulas or
values.

I still don't have a guess, though.

I have tried to reproduce the problem in the original file, and now it

seems
to me that I had been confused by the following.

When you open Excel the LookIn option in the Find dialog box is set to
xlFormulas. In my code I used LookIn:=xlValues, and according to the

help,
the options of Range.Find method and in the Find dialog box correspond

to
each other and are saved every time they changed during one Excel

session.
So, after my code has been run xlValues was used in the Find dialog box.
Apparently, then search with xlValues is slower than with xlFormulas.

This
had confused me.

Thank you!

Oh I wouldn't say that - you found there was nothing to find, sounds

Keep your fingers crossed that Dave might see what's slowing

down
your Find !

I see Dave had already posted his findings
