Thread: 3 letter word searches?

  1. #1

    Question 3 letter word searches?

    I'm sure theres a reason but I thought I would ask anyway,

    why 3 letter searches are not shown up?

    It seems to me there are quite a few 3 letter combinations that are worthy searches,

    For instance I was looking for info on the 'pre mac MWP' and I couldn't find a great deal although I am sure there is seeing as it's been in a RM survival program.

    Can search be reduced to 3 letters?

    Thanks
    Regards,

    Use Google's "advanced" search. Search engines are tricky and can use vast computing resources.

    There's a resource issue with this, I know what you mean though, I'll have a look at it again, I might be able to have differential searching for full members, I'll go look

    You can search for 3 letter words by using an asterix: *

    Example:
    axe*
    FAK*
    SAK*
