Searching HELP!!!
 
Hey all...

I have lime wire pro...
Love it !!!

But here is the problem...

I want to be abble to search for more then one word...

Lets say i want to search for "Formula 1 race"

Lime wire will display all matches for Formula or race or 1...
But i dont want that...

I only want Limewire to display matches to "Formula 1 race" only...

How can i search this way...

Sometimes i want to search for something VERY specific...

I hate it when i get 1000 matches of crap...
If i seatch for "Formula 1 race"
I only want those matches displayed... Only matches that have ALL THE WORDS "Formula 1 race" in them...

Thanks you guys...

I'm afraid that's the nature of the search. You have to be a bit tricky in how you use it. Try using the All Types, it often gives better results. If you're looking for a video of a race & you know where it was held, add that to the search (eg Australian Grand Prix - Adelaide 1994)

If you're searching for something very specific & typing in "Formula 1 race"... can't blame the search for what it throws up:D

Try to be as specific as you can, without getting the dreaded "Your search is too specific" popup!!

So what you are saying is...

What i want to do , cant be done ?

What i want to do is, i want to search for multiple words...
I only want matches to ALL THE WORDS...

Its not my fault for searching for "Formula 1 race"

Because lime wire is showing me all movie files with the word "Race" in it, or "formula" in it, or "1" in it...

That is just silly...

If i type "Formula 1 race" i want files that have "Formula 1 race"
in it... ALL 3 WORDS...

Does anyone know of a way to search that can make ths happen? or is this just a shortcoming of lime wires search function?

How about Formula+1+race
Would that help ?
or Formula-1-race ?
Is there some sort of trick ?

or does limewire's search just suck ?

thanks
