Searching using numbers

[Cantankerous 0]

I search using "134" or "864" for discussions on Affidavit of Support and nothing is returned; I guess because they are numbers not letters as searching for "#######" sure seems to work just fine ...

Can you only search using letters and not using numbers?

I did it for both and got at least 100 hits for each... I also did I-134 and I-864 and it worked equally as well

The main google powered search tool works pretty well so I would try there for these types of things .

Here is a print screen showing nothing returned from the Forum Search when using 134.

For you guys that got replies did you use the Forum Search or the Google Search?

Thanks!

I got the same result as Cantankerous. In other words nothing when I used Forums Search and advanced Forum Search and simply put in the digits 134. I even tried putting it in quotes and the results were the same. Both times it returned the screen similar to what he shows.

However, if I put 134 into the Google Custom Search box (blue banner, beneath tabs) I get LOTs of responses.

when using the forums search try putting a * after the number.... like 864*

You need more than 3 characters when searching in the forums search. The google search has no such limit. Google search also covers the whole site.

It doesn't matter to me if it get fixed or not, but just so's you know......

When I put in I-134 or I-864 (5 characters each) it exhibits the same behaviour (nothing returned). But, as Marilyn says, if you put in 134* or 864* you get a whole BOATLOAD of responses.

Just seems odd to me, but I'm greatful that the forums exist at all. Thanks Captain.

if you do I-864* it works too....
