Searching with a person full name?
« on: Thursday 27 October 16 22:43 BST (UK) »
Is there a way to search for example David Michael Christopher and just get results with the entire name? I get all David's arm Michar!s and all Christopher's no matter I'd those words are first middle or last names.

I am ready to post in Kent and Middlesex London forums but want to search them first in case someone else has asked for a d received replies, before I post.

Thank you
David

Just put the whole name in inverted commas: "....."

Ahhh. I was putting the words between the single quotes like ya, at least over here, do on Google.

Thanks.  I will give it a try.

Best
