Thank you, Mr Micawber.

I'd be happy if you explain to me the difference between Anybody and Everybody in this sentence.

Why can't I use "Anybody"?

Or in what situation, can I say "Anybody will / can ..."?

The best I can do is tell you that 'anybody' is searching for an applicable person while 'everybody' is totally inclusive.
