In addition to my previous:

Mike's syntax example works with Yahoo to but not as expected:
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p="Application%20Layer%20Gateway%20Service";
resultes in 1.7 million hits while
http://search.yahoo.com/search?p=%22Application+Layer+Gateway+Service%22
gives 41.700 hits.

To use this in an app we have to be careful and code separately for each search enginge we want to use. On the other hand - Google dominates and is the best, or ...?.

The string you pass to the launch command for Google search. If the string has spaces in it (such as customer Name like "James Smythe"), In my testing, if an _Exact_ match was required (enclosing the search string in double quotes) required the replacement of the space between "James" and "Smythe" with the %20 (URL hex encoding for space char), so my launch command might look like:

Launch 'http://www.google.com/search?as_q="James%20Smythe";'
