There are two restrictions to code that executes in response to a find: (1) Globals are not available. (2) All code must be in Segment 1.
You should additionally note that the find may run when your application is NOT running (then (1) really is enforced), OR when your app IS running (then (1) globals ARE available, but you may need to deal with trying to open databases twice). The good news in the later case is that you can open a database twice -- under some restrictions: (a) it must not have been previously opened read-write exclusive, and (b) if already opened read-write, it can only be opened again by the same application.
