<sum "%s" "%" "barters syndrome">

But its not pulling up the bartters syndrome(actual spelling) page.

query protection. special pattern matchers are not allowed by default.
View the source of the results page in your browser and you will see html comments indicating the error.

The error message says...'%query would require linear processing'
Is there anyway to catch misspelled words?
Thanks again

Again, see the above URL on query protection. A linear processed search cannot use an index at all, and can take substantially longer than an indexed search; therefore linear searches are disabled by default for protection. A special pattern matcher term (REX, NPM, XPM) used by itself in a query will require a linear search and cannot use an index.
