Default Searching for part, BUT NOT ALL, of a word...
Hello,



I am looking for some help on a search in Outlook 2010:

I want to search for emails containing a code we use here at my work that is literally "CANC", but WITHOUT coming up with other words that happen to contain this string of letters (for example, when i search now i get all e-mails containing the words "cancel" or "canceled"... which is a ton).

is this possible?? HELP PLEASE!

Thanks in advance!!!

Mike

You could try the NOT operator as described here. http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/o...010238831.aspx
