Text searching tips in this forum
on: April 04, 2015, 02:03:45 AM
I just did a search and found some interesting results.  I saw a reference to "Sam's Club" in the topic linked below.  I thought I would see what other references there were to Sam's Club in the same topic.

I tried searching the same topic with the following results:

Sam's Club - no matches
Sams Club - no matches
Sam Club - did result in proper matches

Topic tested:
http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,44724.0.html

Conclusion: Don't use apostrophies (and possibly other special characters?) in a search.  Partial words may give better results like in this case searching for "Sam Club".
