Re: Quick find in RC6
Hello Mary, Sunday, October 10, 2004, 2:30:05 PM, you wrote: MB Okay, so that's a clue. But I was trying to type October and it balked MB at the t. I wanted to search my sister Sue's folder to see if I'd MB forgotten which weekend she was planning to make a trip--we have a MB regularly scheduled Sunday afternoon phone date and she was 40 minutes MB late calling. While I was fiddling with that search, she did MB call--incredibly busy with what Texas loads on its teachers. :) I think Richard has hit the nail on the head here. I'm not sure if its' a feature or a bug, but Quick Search (at least on RC6) only matches up to two characters.._if_ it finds a match...if there is no Oc it goes on to the next letter, otherwise it ignores all entries beyond that. In all honesty, its' an odd bug. For example, type roelof Otten it works all the way, and no characters are deleted...not even spaces. Neither does raymond however re: exhibits the same behavior. Its' got to be an odd REGEX problem with how Quick Search searches. Weird. MB I really think I'm going to be driven to an uninstall and a Registry MB clean. I don't think that will fix the Quick Search problem above, but it might fix your odd Send Mail as a result of Quick Search problem... MB I keep popping up all these idiosyncratic little defects in my copy of MB RC6, beginning with refusal to overwrite the Help file. LOL. That's why we're Beta testers right?

I can say that, since I don't use The Bat! to earn my livelihood.

Re: Quick find in RC6
Hi TBBeta, It does not search in the body of the message. That's why it's quick :-) -- I'm already gone, Raymund The Bat! 3.0.1 RC6 on Windows XP Service Pack 2 Current beta is 3.01 RC/6 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

SC Scott, I think this is happening because the words you type in SC quick search must appear in the headers you see in the message list. SC It does not search in the body of the message. Stuart, I think you are dead on here, but its' strange that it won't allow you to type the characters in regardless...wait...I understand now... OK, never mind, I figured it out. It only searches _some_ specific header fields. Which is why Oct doesn't match on anything, as Received and Created are not searched... So what header fields does Quick Search search...it appears to be Subject:, From: and To: only? The help file does specify this behavior, but it doesn't make clear what fields in the Message List are searched. -- Best regards, Scott Using TB: 3.0.1 RC5 On Windows XP: 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 And Avast!: Jun2004 (4.1.418) with DB: 0441-2 (08.10.2004) TB Plugin: 4.1.418 Current beta is 3.01 RC/6 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
