The \f (end-of-flow) special character search does not work correctly inside a
table in FrameMaker (at least, not on Windows) for at least versions 5 through
8. However, you can use the hex equivalent - enter \x0b as the search text
(wildcards not needed) to find the end-of-flow in the cells.

Carol,
As I understand it there is no dialog operator to find that. I guess that is
the case because it is 'outside' the text flow and therefore is not searched
as a 'text symbol'. Your best option is to search for end-of-paragraph
symbols.

When I search for text using the backslash-f term with Wildcards
turned on, I receive a message that "The item you are searching for
requires text in the Find text box." When I precede the backslash-f
term with a space, then I find every space in the entire doc--not

Stuart, Dick, and all,
When I search for text using the backslash-f term with Wildcards
turned on, I receive a message that "The item you are searching for
requires text in the Find text box." When I precede the backslash-f
term with a space, then I find every space in the entire doc--not
