I just installed Chrome, but I don´t have a toolbar that gives me Edit, Find. I really need something like that. Anyone know how to do it?

In the upper right is a little wrench icon. Click that to get a dropdown of available commands. One of them is Find … Or just press Ctrl-F.

Either way, a small text entry box will pop up near the upper right. Fill it in & press {Enter}
