Hi Dave,
I was only using NoteTab Pro before, but your message prompted me to
install NoteTab Lite as well (apparently, the Lite, Standard, and Pro
versions use different subdirectories and can co-exist). I've read the
NoteTab documentation thoroughly (one set for all versions, ), and did
not recall such a feature limitation in the Lite version.
I just tried searching for a form feed character using the ^b token with
the Lite version, and was successful. Is it possible that your checkbox
for a regular expression-type search is inadvertently turned on, or the
direction of search is currently set to up rather than down?
Regards,
Jamal

Hi Jamal,
Unfortunately, no joy there.
The lite version doesn't want to accept any of the control key sequences
in
the search field.
