You can use SSUB with a negative position number to retrieve values from a space delimited list.
-1 will retrieve the first word and -2 will get the second, etc You can build an appropriate search string this way.

I wanted to limit the keyword to just that - one word. Unfortunately the users seem to have an issue with this and many times put in two words - thus rendering the keyword search and concept moot. Is there an elegant way to check for a space and then return to the field in an eep? Is this better to check in rules??? Anybody have good ideas they are well appreciated... Thanks Robert M.
