I'm fairly new here. How do you do a search for something specific on the boards??? And does the search only search the thread/post title or is it possible to search for something within the post or even to search by user name????
Thanks!

If you click on the above link, and scroll down on that page, it will show you the different combinations, etc., on how to search the site.
If that doesn't cover it, please post back.

I tried the link you gave me. I wanted to do a search by the poster's name. I don't see that option available. :( Am I doing something wrong???
Thanks

AFAIK, there isn't a facility to search for posts belonging to a specific handle. I think Dr B said it was on his ''To Do" list. I like the idea myself.

No, I don't believe that's possible....if you type in the name, it will bring up every reference to that handle.
