Susan, Yes, it works beautifully!  Thanks for such good directions!
I had no idea one could open a gedcom in a word processor!

Susan, how does one export notes & events (only?) to a .gedcom?

Click on:
File -> Export to -> GEDCOM File ->

Make sure to include private info, in case it is tucked in there.
Set: Produce file for GEDCOM 5.5.

Click on:
Customize: You can remove anything you don't want, leaving just notes,
but since you are doing a search, I wouldn't bother. (You highlight
items on the right hand list, then click " < Remove ".

If you do a lot of removing, and think you will search notes again, I
would save this export criteria by clicking Save List.

Click OK.
Make sure Record Selection at the bottom includes all records in file.

Click on top right,  Select file name and start export. Open that file
in a text editor (MS Word or Notepad, for example) and do a search.

Does this work for you?
Susan
