When I try to rescan for a 4 byte value, the entry field allows only 8 digits.
The trouble is, the value I'm looking for is 9 digits, and in fact the largest value possible is 10 digits (the largest signed int is 2,147,483,647)!

I'm actually looking for an array of bytes, but a 4 byte value would work just fine if I could enter all the digits.

Here's hoping it's a quick fix!

can you write that 9 digit value as a 7 digit after it has been converted to hexadecimal ?
If so, $abcdef0 might be a valid notation

No dice.
Although the number fit into 7 hex digits, rescanning with the $abcdef0 format yielded 0 pointers.
As it could have been a bad address to find pointers for, I thought I'd try searching for a value right from the start.
Doing an initial pointer scan in that format yielded the message: Failure determining what $A6658E0 means.
