All is not well in Henderson, the mythical small town in which the NBC-TV daytime soap opera ''Search for Tomorrow'' takes place every weekday afternoon. Sometime over the weekend of July 22, the tape of tomorrow's episode disappeared from an editing room.
The shooting schedule for the show is tight. And so, for the first time in 14 years, the series will be broadcast live from the Reeves Teletape Theater on West 81st Street, rather than taped in advance; there will be none of the normal margin for missed cues, flubbed lines or other on-camera goofs. ''With network feed, there will be no time to fool around,'' an NBC spokesman said.
