Wow! That works. Thank you.
I did a little testing and learned that it can also find a lot of special characters, such as pi, infinity, the division symbol, and others. So if the equation I am looking for has any of those, I can get there even more quickly.
This is an 80-page document with dozens of equations, but being able to step through the equations is so much better than paging through 80 pages. Thank you very much.
I even tried saving the document as .txt, .rtf, .pdf, and several others. None of them were abbe to search inside equations.
If the Find function can find the "=" sign and other special characters, why the h*ll can't it find a variable name? This is either complete incompetence or arrogance or both.
What's the matter with this GD company? Do they have any competent programmers or management anymore? Office has so many bugs and design flaws that have been there for 10-15 years. They just don't seem to give a damn.
