Find and Replace problems

I have been using Word 2002 for the first time. Whenever I use Find and
replace to search for some text and I specify formatting, the program
reports back that the item was not found. I double-checked to make sure the
text does exist, that none of the checkboxes is checked, and that the
formatting of the word matches the formatting I've selected, but it still
can't find it. I even selected a word in Times New Roman 12 point, and
searched for the same word in Times new Roman 12 point, and it still
couldn't find it. I also searched for the word specifying the style instead
of just the font and size, but it still doesn't work. I am a book editor, so
this is important. Has anybody else had this problem?

That was a few chapters ago and I don't remember. Besides, I tried it with
different words.
