I have a Mathematica notebook I keep adding to that contains useful
hints and kinks I've learned in Hard Knocks Tech -- it contains headers,
text commentary, and sample Input cells showing things like how to print
in bold, how to insert a page break, etc. I can open it and search it
while working on another notebook.
When I do this, however, the first time I invoke "Find" on this
notebook, I invariably get the error message
There was a syntax error on line 3 of the cell expression.
The error was
\`\"ToFileName[\"Directory\*"\"",\\*"\
(I think I copied that mess correctly -- be nice if one could Copy &
Paste from an error dialog box).
After that, the Find command works just fine for searching through my
notebook.
