Search not working for "none of these words"

Post by andrew goodwin »

So I type in "zxcvttuuuxx" into "none of these words" filed in Advanced criterion search and then search more than 1000 searchable company financial statements and got no results.

Tried it with and without quotes. What am I doing wrong please.

@Tracker support:
I hope there is nothing wrong by giving and sharing my interpretation ?

@andrew goodwin:
I should not think you are doing something wrong.
Myself, I would also expect that Editor should give me a list of all the documents where that particular word is NOT present.

Hi, Andrew and Willy.
So I type in "zxcvttuuuxx" into "none of these words" filed in Advanced criterion search and then search more than 1000 searchable company financial statements and got no results.
Other advanced criteria fields ("ALL these words", "ANY these words") are empty? If them are empty then - yes, there is small logical issue in our code - when only "NONE of these words" is specified then app doesn't search correctly.. We will fix it in the next build. Thanks for report.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the post - as Vasyl has said, this is not currently possible as there is an bug in the Editor currently preventing this. Please wait for the fix for this, which should be in the 'service patch' to be released in roughly a month and I believe that the issue should be fixed then.

Cheers,
If posting files to this forum, you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded.
Thank you.

Best regards
