Quick Search - odd results searching for docs

lenoxmike

We have enabled Quick Search on about five custom metadata fields.

I have an MS Word Doc where one of the five fields contains the string:
"about us" (minus the quotes).

Quick search results are as follows"
About- finds nothing
Us- finds nothing
About us- finds the doc

If I add the tags ",about,us," as separate words between commas, the results don't change.

Is there something about the metadata for docs that is different than for image files?

Srinivas,
That post is interesting, but I'm still puzzled.

A search for "about" does not find the string in "about us".
A search for "q" does not find the string in "q performance series"

Yet, in another example, a search for "hole" DOES find the string in "hole saw".

It seems like two different behaviors.

I am not sure where to find the information Vin requests, but I'll check with the sysadmin to see if he has a view to more parameters than I can see.

Examples of noise words include all single characters, all single digits, and words like “the”, “of”, “in”, “on”, etc. If your search string is just one or several noise words, then the search string will be transformed by MS Search into an empty string, which in turn is invalid. There is also a list of operator keywords, such as “and”, “or”, “near”, “not”, *, (, ), “, etc.

With quick search you need to make sure that the field that has "about us" is indexed. You will find what all fields are indexed in the MB Enterprise Manager tool.

As quoted/highlighted above a search for "q" will not find the string in "q performance series".

You can conducted quick search not only from the single text field that is visible in the main screen but also from the find tab. You might want to check if the same results show up there.

Are you using SQL server or Oracle?
