If you feel that this bug is relevant you can pay me rewards....

In excel even after protection if we try to search using find we can unearth
the hidden value. This seems to be a security breach.

If you will to pay me i can give some more suggestions in future.

I am really willing to pay you * 5 cents * for this ultimate discovery (I
live in Holland, so come and get it), but please keep in mind that
'worksheet protection' was never invented for hiding data - it's just there
to make sure users won't edit cells that shouldn't be editted.

Get a life.
