I remembered what I did, however, I don't know if you will be able to use it 
John.

I was doing a much simpler command:  "ISREDIT FIND ALL '('" and it kept failing.

What I ended up doing was "ISREDIT FIND ALL X'"C2X("(")"'"
Basically, FIND ALL X'4D'

I know this doesn't help, but I've hit this problem before but can't remember 
what I did to get around the problem.
The problem is specifically the left paren in the find string.

Is Dave Salt around? With his tool I'm sure he can answer this question. He had 
to have come across it at one time or another.

Never mind... I didn't see the "ALL" in the find command.   I usually put that
at the end and missed it.
