Ealric Posted December 1, 2008 Share Posted December 1, 2008 I've started to realize that Google tends to be a very good search tool for these boards. Simply use the following syntax: site:www.autoitscript.com/forum/ searchwords moresearchwords (*Month Year*) -WordsYouDontWant where say I wanted to search for an excel parser on these forums I would put in.. site:www.autoitscript.com/forum/ parse excel (*2008) -xml which would then reference everything specifically related to parsing excel on the autoit forums for any month in the year 2008, removing any posts that house xml.. I've found that it tends to be more useful tan the search tool on the forums. I hope some folks find some enjoyment with this simple tip..
