I want to use the find/replace script function to find and highlight specific text across several fields, but I need to use a variable and would prefer not bring up the dialog box and have the user type in the text, but the find/replace function won't accept a variable. Is there an alternative? It's important in my solution that the found text is highlighted when found.
