Default Search Function Problem

I enter the following into a cell:
=SEARCH("fireman","fire")
and the result is #VALUE!.



Why does this happen? Shouldn't the result be 1?

The only time this function seems to work is when I type in:
=SEARCH("fire","fire")
The result in this case is 1.

I am using Mac Office 2008.
