Oh, I thought by "Spotlight search" you meant the ability to search for them in the Spotlight menu in the menubar. Never mind.
I see now what you mean about Mountain Lion's Notes.app having very limited search abilities, particularly in regard to highlighting the words one has searched for. Rather frustrating, and I think only Apple can fix it. By the way, when one is searching for words in a body of text, one actually is not running a Spotlight search (which searches for documents), but rather a Find (which searches for words in a body of text). The problem with Notes.app is that it only has Spotlight searching! On Saturday, April 13, 2013 10:36:53 PM UTC-4, Sam Boyd wrote: > > Hi Jon, > > Ok, that's interesting.
