I'm using ACAD2009 and having trouble with the FIND command. Once I specify a word or other text and click on FIND, the drawing will zoom to the location where it has FOUND that word and when I hit next it will zoom to that location and so on. However, when I end/close the command the drawing will zoom to the view that I had when I first started the FIND command. If that view was extents then it zooms back to extents. It does not stay at the last found word. Also the FIND dialog box does not have the ZOOM TO feature that was in older versions. Can anyone offer any help with this?

Exxit, Thank you for your reply. I used the link you provided to JTB World Blog and read the information that provided the answer to my question. How can I get Update 1 and any future Updates that become available? I work as a contractor at the clients site and the AutoCAD is loaded on my companies laptop. The client is very strict about internet security and I only have internet access via the clients computer.
