This [:lower:] and this [a-z] will select uppercase letters.
Anybody know why in the heck that is?
What workaround is there to find lowercase letters?
Thanks

Tick "Match case" in the dialog. HTH

Such an obvious answer but I sure missed it

It never occurred to me that match case would have to be checked when I had regular expression checked and used the proper regex for lowercase. Totally counterintuitive to me!
Thanks for the answer.
I was thinking for hours about how I was going to work around the bug!
