I am trying to search the forums for items with the term "SWF-malform-1" in it because of a message I received from my Forefront installation. I get lots of responses for items with "swf" or with "malformed" or other such terms in them, but these do
not address what I want to search for. I tried searching both with and without quotes around the phrase, but I get the same results. How do I search on this term WITHOUT the forum's search function breaking it up and searching in bits and pieces
of the term?
Thank you very much.
You cannot alter any of the "search" tools parameters. It always searches with an OR for all search terms so the more terms you search on, the worse your results get. If you would like to let the powers that be know how you feel about this, please
go to the following link and vote it up. Microsoft has said that they take into account the number of votes a thread gets when they are deciding which problems to fix on the forums. So the more votes this thread gets, the more likely it is to be
fixed (in theory):
