%find - exact
|
Is there a way to use %find to find only exact matched in a db?
I want to modify:
%find (@SpellToFind, SpellupSpells)
where @SpellToFind = shield
to pull only the second record from the following list:
party shield
shield
spirit shield
Thanks, |

Use %query instead. I have personally always found its handling to be better.

a straight up %query returned the exact same results as %find, but I was able to use it to create a condition that also checked the length of my search string
#SHOW {%query( (&SpellName = @SpellToFind) & (%len(&SpellName ) = %len(@SpellToFind)), All)} returns one record for shield. |
