You can't. But you can help to avoid the problem:
-put them in order used by standard Navision.
-use as much as possible LOCAL variables.

You can't search C/AL Globals unfortunately.

If you structure and maintain your variables well then this should reduce the need to search, e.g., Record type variables first, then Codeunits, then forms, reports, text, code, integer, etc. etc.

Keep everything of the same type together and you should find things a lot easier.

IIRC there was a discussion about finding field names in the table designer, and that might also work on variables. Something about selecting the whole line and pressing the key, and it would jump to the first field starting with that letter. I don't know for sure though, so give it a try.

it's true, it does yes - however you have to then reselect the line agin if you want to search again :?

Better than "it's not possible"

and than ctrl+c, paste in excel, ctrl+f, search the variable, read fieldno (or note the approx position in the list), go back to nav and find the variable/field

Indeed, a very close call
