dynamic search folder in Outlook professional 2010 - search

I want to create a search folder that will prompt/take user input (I will enter it manually)
and search all the emails containing that String.
Basically what I am trying to enter is something dynamic and hence I want to pass that string dynamically to the search criteria. is it possible.
Cause: I try to search using the instant search but it finds all emails not with the exact sentence but with all the words in the sentence i typed.
Please help

I found the answer.
Searching for a sentence with in quotes in the instant search area.... i.e.
"your sentence goes here"
will automatically search the complete sentence...
Here is a nice link for that.. really helpful

Is there a way to search multiple keywords in a Saved Search on NetSuite?

I am creating a Saved Search for my team where users can filter by different parameters but the most important one is a ‘Keyword’ field where we have multiple text strings separated by commas. Eg: One could be (Horses, Apples, Cows, Carrots, Balloons) and another could be (Apples, Cake, Silver, Horses, Bananas)
I want to be able to use the free text search field to look up all rows where I can find a relevant entry.
Eg. Let’s say I type “Apples” and “Horses”. I want to see all entries where these are found together.
I have tried setting the criteria to “Contains” but can’t seem to use operators in the input field. I have also tried to use expressions but got You cannot use an expression builder criteria filter as an available filter" as an error.
I’m not familiar with NetSuite but willing to learn. I was able to create this in Google Sheets. Since we already store our information on NS already, I want to find a way to do it there. Is there a way to achieve this?
Thank you.
When you create the saved search, you can just specify a default value that will be used in the initial search load (e.g. contains Apples). In the Available Filters tab, select the same filter and check Show in Filter Region.
When users run the saved search, they can change the criteria by typing into the field and pressing Tab after (if you press Enter instead of Tab, the results will be downloaded into a CSV file instead of being displayed in the page). In your example, they should type 'apples%horses' then press Tab.

Update:
Use 'has keywords' instead of 'contains' in the filter. When viewing the results, separate keywords with a comma. Example: 'apples, horses'

Remove the word 'The' from the front of a company name to the end of the company name in Excel, is there a simple formula?

I have been trying for a couple of hours to figure out how I can remove the word #The' from the front of a company name, then add it back at the end of the company name, I have tried various things without luck.
I hope you can help.
I need to change it from The Excel Team, to Excel Team, The
Or is there a way to sort my list on excel discounting the word 'The'
Thanks in advance.
I think the best way is to use custom formatting so you only need to write the company name and it will show you the "The" before the name.
That way you can sort your list by name.
It will also help you in other things you might want to do.
The custom formatting code is "The" #

Basic Search Question - Searching a list and applying a filter

I have a custom list of a few thousand names of people and a few columns.
For example: FirstName, LastLast and Yes/No Column called Active.
What i am hoping to create is a custom view that by default shows no items in the columns, with a simple search box above that where someone could search for a LastName, and when they click search have the view populate with results that contain the given LastName + Only Active = Yes. I want to avoid having to teach users to use the filter option after they search.
In SharePoint 2013, are there out of the box web parts that i can add to a blank web part page or list view that can achieve this? If so, can you step me through that? Thanks!
Mike
There are several ways to approach customized search results in SharePoint.
It sounds like you most likely need to use the Content Search Web Part. The content Search Web Part allows you to append custom query text to a user's search phrase and to target specific scopes for your search. Please see this step-by-step guide to configuring this web part to search only a single list.

search term with hyphens are not searchable in sharepoint 2013

I have a search application which basically provides search services. Technically it uses SharePoint 2013 for search functionality and display the results using UI technologies. Here we have a Textbox a user can enter the search term, perform search and get the results from the SharePoint API. But the issue here his we are unable to do search the links that contains hyphens.
Example :
Scenario 1: when user texts this link in the textbox "https://cis.somedomain.com/about/pages/quality-and-risk-management.aspx" and perform search, they cannot get the search results from the SharePoint 2013.
Scenario 2 : when user texts this link in the textbox "https://cis.somedomain.com/rr/pages/assurance_sas.aspx" and perform search, they are able to get the results.
Problem : if the link contains hyphens search results are not appearing , but search results are appearing if the link contains uderscore.
Is this the limitation of the SharePoint ? do we have any configurable solution, Please help me out on this one. Thanks in advance.
To my knowledge sharepoint does not have such a limitation. If I understand you correctly, when a user performs a search for a page which has a hyphen in the URL, results do not show, however if a search is performed on a page with an underscore in the URL, the results are shown? Do you have any search result sources that could be affecting what results are shown based on the search text?

Building a formula that builds a URL with variables from cells (which will be keywords)

Google Sheets... Basically... I want to build a URL (it'll be a boolean site: search) where one cell field will be the website that is searched and another cell will be the keywords to search for. If there are more than one keywords in the field it'll need to replace the spaces with + signs in the URL.
Example is I have 'opentoexport.com' in a cell for the website and 'this is a test' in the field for the search term/keywords. It needs to build a URL that replace the spaces in the search term with + signs like this - google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl#q=site:opentoexport.com+this+is+a+test.
To try to make it clearer what I mean, I want some kind of formula that would make a URL like google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl#q=site:(Cell C:4)+(Cell A:4) where C:4 was the website I wanted to do a site: search of and C:4 would be keywords. The keywords in C:4 have spaces between them and the URL needs those spaces to be a + sign instead.
The formula I've tried so far is =CONCAT("google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl#q=site:($C4)+($A4))") which doesn't work.
The info in C4 is 'opentoexport.com' which is the website I want to do the site search of on Google.
The info in A4 are the keywords which is the search term I want to use on Google for the site: search, which in this instance is 'articles export market'. I want it to create https://www.google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl#q=site:opentoexport.com+this+is+a+test.
Here is an example of the sheet I'm using... https://goo.gl/RHEXce
Could anyone help? It seems complicated but I'm hoping someone who knows what they're doing might be able to make it simple?
note i've had to mess with the URLs to allow myself to post because it warned I had too many links
Does this formula work as you want:
="https://www.google.co.uk/?gws_rd=ssl#q=site:"&C4&"+"&SUBSTITUTE(A4," ","+")
