Find works fine on Mac, but fails on Win98, for reasons unknown.

Something spooky is going on.  I can get it to work sometimes (if I click in the
content area, then it breaks).  The Cancel button doesn't seem to work either
(at that point).  Will investigate further.

Just wanted to add that in my build from this morning (12/06/99), I can't
reproduce any of the problems law mentions above on WinNt. Find always works,
even when I click in the content area.

I have the 2 patches for bug #20106 and bug #20524 in my source tree though.

"find" is working again.  It was likely fixed as a side-effect of some
focus/layout fix that went in over the weekend (or else was just a gift horse,
of which I won't look in the mouth).

okay it works as advertised...but there is still a problem in Composer
where if you type a bunch of text and then hti Find, you have to enable
"wrap" because the cursor selection is stuck after the last peice of
text you entered....will file a separate bug.

verified in 12/6 build.
