    What's wrong with the search?

    I can't get a search to return anything, even on phrases like COM.
    I know there are threads with that word in it - I wrote one two days ago...

    What's happened to the search??

    There's alot of things that are wack. Like it says Wynd was the last poster in General PC, but it was me. I noticed the search was wack too. And now the vbcode. Someting's up. Hopefully it'll get fixed up though.
    My evil laugh has a squeak in it.

    I believe the search function is set up to ignore words with 3 or less characters.

    Didn't work with longer words either. I used to get a different msg when trying to search 3 character words...

    Filb - if it works, find my thread titled "tell me all about COM", and give me the link...

    When I do a search for com I get no hits. When I do a search for list I get a lot of hits.

    It should tell you though if you go below the word size limit.

    OK, although it used to tell you that was the reason. Oh well, thanks.
