--- Comment #1 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
As active selection from the "Search Results" report advances through the found
cell results it allows a replacement one at a time. The "Find Next" & "Replace"
actions on the dialog are serial. 

But as noted when entries are changed--the "Search Results" report GUI is not
updated. And likewise if the Undo (from Standard toolbar) is applied--cell is
not updated then on the results report.

It would be helpful if the result would refresh as changes are made for the
cell. 

As implemented now -- following a "Find All" doing a "Replace All" will
regenerate the "Search Results" report ending with the same selected cells a
the original find. But the report is not regenerated if the replacement is
undone, seems it should refresh for that action as well.

As to not showing the "Search Results" when a Replace all is used, it is
actually quite handy to use the GUI from the results to reposition the sheet
back to the starting cell of the replacements. It is useful, so see no reason
to change that.
