Cannot find text in Flash CS5

I can't search for text in Flash CS5.

I've created a new project, added some actionscript in the first frame ("stop();")
When trying to search for this string (CTRL-F > Find and Replace) I get no results.

Search in: Current Document

For: Text

Text: stop

Replace with (blank)

Checked items:

Text fields contents

Frames/Layers/Parameterss

Strings in ActionScript

ActionSript

Nothing (ever) shows up in the results. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks!

3 years later... I'm having the same luck with the "Find and Replace" tool.

The only way I had any success using this tool was to drag all the MCs from the library to the stage before using "Find and Replace".

I could not figure out how to find and replace text within a mc that was in the library only and not on the stage.

Note: I also had to specify to search in "Current Document" as it would not work in the "Current Scene".
