Solved - Beginning a search in Notes causes program to freeze

[nodrog]

This has happened before some years ago - I updated EPIM Pro (in this case to v9.2) and since then whenever I begin to search in notes the first letter of the search will be highlighted in all visible content and subject text, and the program freezes.
I have left it for a few minutes but it still shows in Task Manager as Not Responding, and I am unable to do anything else on the computer until I have forced the process to stop. I cannot even take a screen shot to illustrate the problem.

UPDATE -Thanks Anton, at your suggestion I created a new empty database and synced the existing one to it. There was a minor glitch after with old reminders appearing again, but the main problem has gone. Thank you!
