    Resolved search -> partial match supported or not?

    does the forum search support partial searches? cuz it really should and it doesnt seem like it does.
    I searched for InterpolationMode and gr.InterpolationMode in the VB.NET section. The First search SHOULD include the result from the second search but it doesnt
    are you guys going to add support for partial searches? cuz an exact match search is not that useful if you're trying to search for code

    I got 7 hits using the wild card character - "*InterpolationMode". Then with "gr.InterpolationMode"
    I got a subset of the first one with only 2 hits. Is this what you were referring to?

    Re: search -> partial match supported or not?

    No prob . I actually stumbled upon it a few months ago when trying to do a search after we upgraded.
    I couldnt get the right results back so I thought I would just try a * and it worked. There may be
    other characters that work too. No time to find out right now though.

    Looks like * is to leave out many characters, and _ is for only ONE character. Where other search functions often use % or something.
