Searching - How to search for 2 specific words in one?

[JustALearner]

Hi,

I'm having a bit of trouble here. Using the search feature, is there a way to search for 2 words using an AND join or something? Hmmm... ok.. maybe an example is the best way to explain what I mean:

Lets say I search for "Baulkham Hills". If I do this I then get all posts with the word "Hills" in it. Is there a way to only return results that match "Baulkham Hills"?

Using my example again, I've tried:

Baulkham AND Hills
Baulkham + Hills

However I still get all posts with the word "Hills" in it. Is there a way to do what I am after?

Thanks!

Why not just search for Baulkham? I doubt there are THAT many other things with the word Baulkham in it.

You might try putting quote marks around like so "Baulkham hills"

In google, type: "Baulkham hills" site:http://www.somersoft.com/forums/

Thanks all for your quick replies! Twitch and jerky - both methods work perfectly. Also thanks to Alex for the advice

I have permission from Ian to implement a Google site search feature that will effectively do what Twitch suggested, but in an easier way. Hopefully this will make searching the forums much easier - although there are some limitations with the Google search, it's still possibly better than the default forum search.
