Popup
Cannot find regular expression '^$'
when finding next UP on winnt4 with textpad 4.7.1
When finding next Down for the same regular expression the cursor(line highlighting) does not move after the first execution.

Interestingly, it fails to move on when searching down as well, and has done so since TextPad 4.0 was released 4 years ago. Amazing how long it takes some things to come to light! Until it's fixed, you can use Mark All, then Next/Previous Bookmark, or search for "\n\n".
