Tom Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Does anyone know why a simple search of "self-control*" (without quotes) doesn't bring up "self- control" and "self-controlled" in the NIV? Instead it brings up the dialog box that says the selected word can not be found in the text. Seems like the use of the * would bring up all occurrences of the (hyphenated) word. Typing self-control or self-controlled works individually, but kind of defeats the purpose of using the * to find all occurrences. Search does not produced desired results in other translations as well. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruben Gomez Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Try using "self*control*" (without quotes), and I think you'll get just what you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Lang Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 You can also just enter "selfcontrol*" without the hyphen or an asterisk to represent the hyphen. In spite of the fact that there are other ways to accomplish the search, this does look like a bug. Accordance should not be returning an error when you use a wildcard with a hyphenated word.
