The software should not generally highlight partial matches. You would need to search for "thunder*" to find and highlight thunderstone.

I am searching for "thunder*" but I don't see it highlighted.

Should I use rex the way I use it before created indexes.

Not quite sure why thunder* doesn't highlight for you, it does for me at: http://www.thunderstone.com/texis/site/ ... nder*&cq=3

U see my search query is thunder and not thunder*.
But I get ur drift.
What I need to do is add * to the query and then run it to fmtcp.

Let me try that and get back to you.

Thanks!

Hi
THis is what I did

<$expr=">>[\space+]=">
<$replace = "\* ">
<sandr $expr $replace $txtpplsrch>
<$search_str= $ret "*"><sum "%s" $search_str><$search_str=$ret>


<fmtcp QUERY "%mbH" $search_str>

included <mm></mm> to enable highlight.

Now as per my understanding
if I enter search query as "Mess Boar"
then for the text Message Board it should highlight both words but it highlights only Board.

Pls help!

Thanks

Hey I found an alternative and it works cool.
Also the suggestion given in one of the forum to change colour also works ...

Thank you!
