Karyn Traphagen Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 I know I am missing something minor, but can someone help me with this search string? I am using the following strings (gleaned from a previous posting) * y?? @ [VERB] will find I-yod (or pe-yod) * n?? @ [VERB] will find I-nun (or pe-nun) * ??h @ [VERB] will find III-heh (or lamed-he) * ??(ahwy)? @ [VERB] will find II-gutturals But when I try to copy in the above lines, or try to type them in manually, the string gets inserted in reverse order or in a garbled order. How can I enter them exactly as they are above? Thanks! Karyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpkang Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 y?? @ [VERB] will find I-yod (or pe-yod)n?? @ [VERB] will find I-nun (or pe-nun) ??h @ [VERB] will find III-heh (or lamed-he) ??)ahwy(? @ [VERB] will find II-gutturals When I copy just the highlighted strings, the searches work fine for me in Word search mode in BHS-W4 in Accordance 7.1, except for the last one, where I've reversed the parentheses. If I were typing them from scratch, I'd enter the root with wildcards, press cmd-shift-t (the shortcut for manual Tag Entry), and then type verb in the resulting brackets. OK, re-reading your query, I wonder if you actually wanted [VERB] to appear first/rightmost in the entry box--is that part of the issue? Also, might you have Caps Lock down accidentally on your keyboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karyn Traphagen Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 OK, I knew it was something simple! I was being too literal and copied in the asterisk with the search string. I still get the "reversal" of the elements of the string, but the search works. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
