Is the Find command broken?

[James Sentman]

trying to understand exactly what you’re describing here, the text you were searching for is highlighted in the script, but not placed into the search field that shows at the top of the script? The search field remains blank? 

When you ran the search did you type the text into the global find dialog? Or did you cut and paste it? It’s only important because the text encoding might be different and I might have missed a place I should have converted it. Or it might be because of something interesting in the script.

Can you email me off the list that script and the text you were searching for? I have a not that old copy of your database I can test with but getting the one that actually did this would be better. I would rather have the script file itself rather than just the text. You can get it by using the “edit externally” option in the gear menu of the edit script window and then save that off as a copy that you can zip up and email to me along with the exact search phrase. i will test. If I can duplicate it then I can sort it out.

Again, I’ll key in a command F, and the search line appears, but the text I’m searching shows up in the script, not the search line.
