-- Search for short words? (http://discussion.visorcentral.com/vcforum/showthread.php?threadid=15742)

Question

I've been thwarted a couple of times by what seems to be a rule that you can't search for a short word in the discussion search function.

This is a problem when the short word is exactly what I'm looking for, such as 'X10' or 'RF'.

Any tricks to get around this limitation?

I agree, just this morning I tried to search for AOL.

I tried searching for "T28" for the T28 ericsson phone --> visor connectivity and I couldn't do it. Please enable it!

There's currently a 4 character minimum length... I've pointed this out to marcus.

There is a workaround... use wildcards (*) to pad the search phrase to 4 characters. For example, X10*, T28*, and RF**. I know it's a little inconvenient but does appear to work for now.

We have now changed the search criteria to a minimum of two characters.

Thanks,
