Just did a keyword search on the Auction data base ( I did DDR) and I am getting, in addition to the DDR hits, a lot of unrelated listings, none with the ddr sequence of letters or even 2 d and one r.

Ralph, the search is picking up the word "address" which appears in some of the unrelated book page descriptions.

re: Auction Keyword Search/Sort problem?

Thanks Mike...hum..shouldn't the search be on the title line only? Or is it on the description as well...and if so I wonder if we should not have an option to only search the title line?
But I guess that would explain the list I got...which did not display DDR anywhere else on the titles listed.
