I notice when you use the search function in MyInfo, it only matches on whole words. For example, if a document contains the word "catalog" and I search for "cat", that document won't be included in the search results.

I feel that this behavior should be a user-selectable option. Perhaps have a checkbox next to the search box that says "Include partial matches" or "Search whole words only", etc... Many times, I have been frustrated because I know I have something saved in MyInfo, but I'm unable to find it because I don't remember the exact entire keyword that I would need to search on.

It looks like it is a problem introduced in the latest version. Try searching *cat, it should work. We will fix that in the next release. MyInfo should find all words that begin with the search string.

We have investigated this problem and it does not happen for us. Could you please send me an e-mail with the topic that you have problems with, so we could fix that issue?
