Forum searches for "TLAs"?

[mjcoon]

I know that there are forum entries which mention XML and KML. But searches for these return no hits.

Since IT geeks are very fond of TLAs (three letter acronyms) it is essential to be able to search for them.

Then I would be able to find where the mysterious KML.dll is that is needed for the latest version of GPS4PPC. I might have used it for my program too, instead of using XML.dll. And it would be useful for other GPS applications that could generate output to be shown via Google Earth. (And Google Maps on PPCs, too, amazingly!)

Its because the forum search doesn't like less than four characters in the search. Try this syntax in Google.

In that case the response that there are no matches is a bug!

And in any case it is a crippling constraint as I have demonstrated...

Thanks to that hint I've rediscovered http://www.basic4ppc.com/forum/addit...html#post30420

The forum search is far from being perfect.
I use google with the following syntax (as written in the link): site:basic4ppc.com XML
The results are usually better than the internal search results.
