srchInit and Exact Matches

Keywords:   srchInit Exact Matches

Question:

How can I make the Srchinit find Exact Key Words Only!

Example:

"Gorden Keen" not "Gorden"
"Valuation" not "Evaluation"
"Right of First Refusal" not "Right" or "of" etc...

Answer:

You can't.

To get closer

  1. Add a 2 to the request code on SrchInit to hit whole words only

  2. Try
Right&of&First&Refusal

which will make sure at least all of those words are in there.

The alternative is to load the files into BinaryBuffers and do a search on each one. Somewhat time consuming if you have to search a lot of files.
