   If I have several files open in PN, then go to find, the search radio group only allows me to select 'current document'. Shouldn't 'all open documents' (at least) be enabled?

   Thanks,
   graham

   I would like to see this option enabled and working as well.

   Thanks in advanced

   Yes, I do intend to get this working sometime soon! Here's a question for all:

   When you search "all open documents" would you prefer:

   a) The find next function moves to the next document when find loops in the current one
   b) Performs a find in files on all open documents and shows results in the find in files pane?

   b please! The list is pretty essential with a bunch of files.

   I would prefer 'a' myself, finding a word in several files won't always tell you what is related to that word.
   Sometimes you just want to see 2-3 lines above/below the phrase you're searching but not the exact same phrase.

   Maybe a checkbox in the search dialog to toggle between both options?

   Hi simon - great job on programmer's notepad - thanks.

   Are you any closer to implementing "find in files" - especially the "current project" option?
