The method I use is to choose Find... (Command-f), type in what I'm looking for, and press Return to execute the Find command. One way you can tell if something was found is that VO will read the full contents of the first cell found (e.g. if you search for "Mac" it might say "Mac OS X" if that's the contents of the first cell it finds with your text in it). Next, press Escape (or hit the Cancel button) to put the Find dialog away. Unfortunately, I find that when I press the arrow keys to move around, the selected cell is still not the one found in the Find dialog, but rather has just stayed where it was. The solution? Press Command-G for "Find Again" and the cell selection will jump to the cell containing your Find text. You can press additional times to find the subsequent cell matches, too. A little hard to describe, but if you follow the steps, it should work.
