A discussion in the Freenode IRC channel #openoffice.org brought me to a
helpful idea: The Text box needs an Label box attached to it. If one has
created it, in the Properties dialog window, the proper field identier
can be set. And now the »Find Record« dialog can be set also to look
into this Text box' contents.
