notepad++

In Notepad++ (v5.9), I want to search for files which contain two words. For example, I would like to find all text files in a directory that have both Alpha and Bravo in the file. They may not be next to each other and they may have multiple occurrences of either. I just want to find the files that have at least one instance of each.

Is there a way to structure this search without resorting to Regular Expressions?

Thanks for the advice.
