I've been trying to search the forum Archives by a specific date and am baffled.

Nor can I seem to make wild-cards work.

Here's tw examples if anyone can help -

Try to find the posts from July 9 - 10, 2004.

And

Try to find the post just for July 10, 2004.

Thanks in advance...


:)

Looks like it wants some keywords along with very broad date ranges. If you are looking for the missing 3 minutes of Watergate tapes, I don't think it is here ;)

Yeah - and it returns weird dates...

And no wild-card searches??

Seems we should be able to seach by date - sine the DB is pretty date specific...



:confused:

Well, in principle, you could suck down the whole site and search that, but it would be expensive, rude (in bandwidth), and possibly a violation of copyright. Most problems involving computers are soluble given sufficient motivation.

It is the Watergate tapes, isn't it?
