Description:
"Search" feature is not finding requested strings, if the string was pasted into the window, and the string contains an underscore character.

How to repeat:
Create a query tab and enter some text.  Include a string with an underscore, like "a_b".   Copy it to the clipboard via ctrl-C.  Now create another tab window, and paste in the text using ctrl-V.  Now click on Edit-Find and search for "a_b" .  The search dialog box will say "no match found".

Thank you for a bug report. Verified just as described on XP.

Looks like any string paster to Find dialog box will not be found...
