JP:

Is this what you were looking for?

Thread reference 85330:

If you want to match the whole field (and not just a whole word), in sub query, replace

($in{'ww'}) and ($tmpreg = "\\b$tmpreg\\b");

with

($in{'ww'}) and ($tmpreg = "^$tmpreg\$");

That's the one! Although I would like to be able to work out a way to have both "whole word" and "whole field."

Thanks, Lois!
