First, notice that this type of search is not for a header, but for a specific 
heading level.  These two items are completely different.

The problem with searching for headers is that your search has to match the 
header you are looking for in your document.  For example, if you look for a 
Heading Level 1 style, and your document does not have one, you will not find 
that style.  That is, the styles have to match for you to find it.  You can't 
just look for a heading and expect to find it unless it matches in your 
document.  And you cannot search for a header; it is not in the text area and 
Word has no facility to search for headers.
