Description

  • In Regular Expressions \w are characters that are treated as word characters by word boundaries
  • Therefore \Wson\W would find:
son
.son
son.
  • But not:
johnson
sonny
jacksonville
  • In APP the \W does not work the same.
  • Is there a way to use word boundary setting in the APP search engine?
