In this case, giving the find window a firm focus seems to be  needed before it works, but if it works for everyone, that is a big step in the right direction. Thanks Judy for this insight.

Yeah, I found that Find doesn't always figure out which Window screen is "on top". Any nudge to the right window seems to help Find do it's thing--LOL.
