Perhaps this is another of Microsoft's improvements that I shall have to live with.

The fact that the behaviour of the Find & Replace tool is not what you're used to does not mean that it's unpredictable. It's completely predictable. Personally, I find the current implementation more sensible than what you're describing, although that doesn't mean what was was wrong. That said, if you change what you're looking for then it makes sense to treat it as a new search and ignore whatever went before. Whatever seems more intuitive to the individual, what is is and, as far as I can see, there's no way to make VS.NET behave the way you describe.
