Judy et al, When I tried this suggestion of highlighting something, anything in the favorites window PRIOR to searching with the find feature, it DID work. That was a real surprise for me! The find feature is supposed to automatically search in the topmost open window, or at least that is what I have understood for several years. 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.

Find migt be searching anywhere unless your cursor is "in" the window you are searching. I'm going off to try this myself.
