I have looked everywhere but cant find this simple answer.
How do I search this forum for 2 specific words?

I have tried:
Nokia E61
Nokia and E61
Nokia+E61
NokiaE61

It keeps giving me all the items that contain the word Nokia, but none that contain the words Nokia and E61. I only want to see items that contain both these words.

What am I doing wrong or what is the right way to search for 2 words?

Hi - I'd suggest using googles site search - click on the search link at the top of this page - use the second field and enter +nokia +E61 then click on the Google Search button.

EDIT or click on the following http://www.google.com/search?q=site:mybroadband.co.za%20%2BNokia%20%2Be6 1

The problem is that E61 is too short. I think, try searching for just E61, and it will probably tell you that the word is too short or incorrect.

Therefore it is only searching for Nokia no matter what you do, you can search for two "normal" words fine.

The only shortcoming I can spot at the moment is the lack of a spell checker

The only shortcoming I can spot at the moment is the lack of a spell checkerWindows users might consider using firefox 2 which has it built in.

You should be searching for "Nokia E61" in inverted commas - will find exactly that text string and no other.

Spelling? Nobody seems to have noticed but at the top right of this message post window there is a spell checker (above the message smilies on the right.)

Google site search is better than VB search. And google's spell checker is better(?) than this one mentioned - but it is there - if you look.

:cool:
