Wendy, I'm searching in the "Repository-Home Page" field and no matter what text I enter, it will not find it. Yet I know the text exists in some records. Curiously, it will find records that have a blank field.
FYI - I have the "Anywhere in field" box checked, though it doesn't seem to matter which boxes are checked. I have used S&R extensively with generally good success and other fields seem to be OK right now. But I do remember some problems in the past with not all search text being found.

I did not use the "replace" portion (I "skipped" so it would go on to look for the next one), but the "search" found what I was looking for. Can you tell us what you're doing, that you're not getting the expected result?
