Search.cgi - plurals
Anyone know of a way to make Links SQL 2.1.0 ignore plurals?

So searching for hospital would find:

hospital and hospitals.

Thanks, April

Hi,

You can turn substring searching on to do this. It does a bit more then what you are asking though as a search for 'auto' would match both 'autos' and 'automobile'. You can default it on in Setup->Search options.

Cheers,

Alex
