Default The edit - find command

Sometimes the edit -find command is not able to locate text that is present
in the worksheet. What am I doing wrong ?

Most of the time that this happens to me I have inadvertantly selected a
range of two cells or more without noticing.

It could also be that there is a space, or other invisible character, before
or after the text.

In order to search the whole worksheet only one cell must be selected. If
the text is not located, click on any cell and try again.
