Default Find cells containing multiple values in random order

Hello,

I'm using the find function to search for a single cell containing multiple
predefined words. For example all cells containing the letter A and B, using
the following code:

Set X = Selection.Find(what:="A" & "*" & "B")

But this search only finds cells that conatin A and B in that particular
order. Thus a cell containing BA is not found! Is there a way to adapt the
find statement in such a way the order of the words in a cell are no longer
dependent on the search result?

thanks in advance,
