Need Exact Match feature in Search function
I am trying to search these forums for a solution to a problem. I have hundreds of "Google Desktop Toolbar" toolbars appearing in MS-Outlook. Very annoying.

Google Desktop has long since been removed from this machine.

If I search for "Google Desktop Toolbar" I get 660 hits, most of them not relevant.

Is there no way to restrict the search to an exact match instead of a match to any of the words ?

Try using the "Search Using Google" option when you click on the Search item at the top of any page.

No worries. It would be nice if our internal search program had some additional features, but the amount of data on this site is just so huge that we haven't been able to find an affordable program to replace this almost free one that can handle so much data.
