Just to close out this discussion: You can not rearrange saved searches in v9.6.
You can rearrange saved searches in v10.5 via Setup. If you are running both versions on different machines, you can move a copy of 'Grep Searches.xml' from the older version to the newer, with a temporary re-name of the file on the newer version. Edit them there, and move the file back to the old version. It's better than messing with the .xml file directly (but not as exciting, and with much more predictable results). In 9.6 the file to edit is at /Users/USERNAME/Library/Preferences/com.barebones.BBEdit.PreferenceData/Grep Patterns.xml while in BBEdit 10 and later, the pattern file resides within BBEdit's app support folder: /Users/USERNAME/Library/Application Support/BBEdit/Setup/Grep Patterns.xml Thanks to all who replied.
