I need to search the "Notes" field in contacts.  Please help?  Is this
possible?

Thanks Russ.  Been there, done that.  Advanced find doesn't seem to look into
the Notes field.  Or did I miss something?

I stand corrected - I thought you were talking about advanced instant find
(clicking on the little icon in the search box).  But you were talking about
Tool Menu->Instant Search -> Advanced Find and it worked.  Thanks a lot!

Spot on. Instant search is worthless for Notes fields. Advanced Find still
works.
