Default Outlook 2003... search for line break char

Hi everyone

I've got a folder full of website e-mail forms, so all the messages are
of the same format.
We're using Outlook 2003 in an Exchange environment.

I need to search through and find a particular set of messages that have
the following string:

double-sized listing?
Yes

Searching for just the string "double-sized listing?" won't work as all
the forms have that string.

The problem is I can't find a way to search for the line-break character.

In word you can search for special characters... I would accomplish the
above search with the following...
double-sized listing?^NYes

But in Outlook that doesn't appear to work.

Is there a way to search for this in Outlook?
I assume there is a way, but I guess it might only be possible with VBA?


Next time I think we are going to have to re-design our e-mail form to
give the question and answer all on the one line.

Thanks
Ben
