help with a universal remote control?

My universal remote control got messed up and I need to reprogram it. I don't have the codes but I'd rather work without them. I know there is a way that you can get the remote to "search" for the right code. I just don't remember the proper steps to do it. Can anyone help? Thanks

Answers:
I've got a Sony, and don't remember a "search" option. They're only $10. Maybe buy a new one?
