Is it possible to use the search function in 'overset text'.

When I use the search/replace function in Indesign CS2 I can find any text also when the text is hidden because it's overset.

In scripting I am only able to find text which is visible. Overset text can't be found. See the example how I use this function:

textFrames.item(k).search("test", false, false, "replaced", undefined);

Anyone an idea?
