I don't think so.  It looks like the 'Find String...' option on a filter 
uses FNDSTRPDM in the background.  As far as I know, there is no way to 
search using regular expressions in FNDSTRPDM.

Perhaps you could use the QShell command grep?  I have no idea whether 
this works on source PF members, only that it would work well for stream 
files.  Perhaps someone on the midrange list would be able to answer 
that if you want to try it.

HTH,
