In (cough) other spreadsheet software I'm used to starting find and

blank, thus I can find (and fill) all the empty cells quickly and
easily in a range.
Could you do a search for LEN=0? Looks like NULL can't be found, but I think
a 0 length data probably can.

I don't see how you can put a formula in the Find box - am I missing something?

Hello Brian,
It is one of Calc's well known extravagances that find&replace is unable to find empty cells nor empty strings. Use a filter. Select the column in question, Data>Filter>Standard... <column X> = <-empty-> [OK]

Hope this helps,
Andreas
