do you really mean a _regular_ expression? (Something like fo.+l for foil
and fojl and forumlautl and ...?) As far as I know, LyX search/replace
doesnot work with regular expressions.

Do you have the accent on the keybord? (For me, inputting umlaut-keys (äöü)
works fine, but it does not work when I use the "Compose-Key ´ a" sequence.)
However, marking the word in the Text with the mouse, pressing ^C and then
inserting with Middle-Click inserts the correct word and also finds it.
Another workaround would be to save the file, do the replacement action in a
"normal" text editor and do Datei|Wiederherstellen (File|Recover) to load it
again. This is how I do replacements in math-boxes.
