Thank you for the reply. The spreadsheet isn't for public release. I need some time to create a mock up and see if I can reproduce the problem. The steps I remember are: Search all sheets for all occurrences of "steam engine" I went through that section of the spreadsheet applying minor edits. At some point I noticed a lot of empty cells. "steam engine" was not the only text in these cells so I doubt it was a careless mouse click on replace all with a blank target field. When I reran the search it returned no hits. I was not making global changes. Please give me a few days to explore reproducing this.
