At the risk of belaboring the obvious...
Ctrl-F(ind), "More Options", tick "Backwards"

Or did I miss your point?

That's hard to be certain :-) I found myself wondering whether he meant to search within the current document, within all open documents, or anywhere on the disk (or in his desk drawer - the question was so vague).

Oh, and a reminder, please, to the OP to keep different topics in separate threads, or at least to change the subject line!!!! This one's meandered considerably. And "Question" isn't very helpful as a subject - if you're needing help, please make life easier for those who just might be prepared to provide that help! A good subject, a precise description of the problem or what you're trying to do, and (usually) mention of program versions and OS will all help.
