No results with full word. WDS 2.6.5.5378
Hi
Sometimes I get "no items found" when I enter a word. However, if I leave out the last letter of the word, I get the correct result. This affects only some words, but I cannot see any pattern to this.
I have seen several posts, but no resolution, on microsoft.public.msn.search with this same problem. It also occurs on machines with a German keyboard.
Can you help me to resolve this issue?
I have a WinXP-SP2 machine with a Swiss German keyboard, I am in a workgroup, and I am logged in as administrator.
With kind regards, Matthias Kl?y

The query is just the german word "fangfrage" which means in englisch "trick question".
If I enter the full word, I get "Nothing found in All Locations for query 'fangfrage'"
If I enter just "fangfrag", I get 17 results. These are ASCII text files with extension .txt or .log, and one Word 2003 .doc document.
The full word "fangfrage" with the "e" at the end is actually contained in all these files. This seems to me to be the correct search result.
The characters just following the word "fangfrage" are "!", "?", ")", ",", "n", <space> and <end-of-line>.
Thank you for your help

I am running englisch XP-SP2 without any MUI package for the OS installed.
In "Control Panel / Regional and Language options", on the tab "Regional Options", "Standards and Formats" is set to "German (Switzerland)", and "Location" is set to "Switzerland", and the "Default input language" is set to "German (Switzerland)" and Keyboard "Swiss German". On the "Advanced" tab, "Language for non-Unicode" programs is set to "English (United States)"
I do have the german language pack installed for Office 2003, however, it is normally set to english. I only very occasionally switch to german.
