"advanced searches on SI?" The SI Admin(Bob) reply did not mention using a Unix Pipe symbol that has already added an extra undocumented feature to iHub's search, so i tried it and found it not to generate any error, but did not return any search hits when some did exist. - One "trick" i sometimes use for advanced searching, is as follows. - I know a post had the string "its apples and oranges you..." so i do two searches, one for apples, another for oranges, then compare the output results for when both searches display the same post as a hit. - I don't have a printer hooked up to my pc, but i think one can sent monitor output to the printer. If one could send monitor displayed output to a text file on your hard drive, then that would make it easy to collect a zillion hits from both searches onto a seperate file, and use a file compare program to display only where lines were identical. doug
