I tried to search for "!NA" but only got results like name. It seems the search truncated the exclamation point. Is there a way to get this included with the search?

'Fraid not. Punctuation is not included in searches.

It's not just punctuation. I tried other symbols like @ and % which I do not consider punctuation. So searches are based on text only? Is there a way to search just NA alone instead of having it find na in words?

If anyone in power is reading this, I would like to request special characters be added to the search capabilities. Thank you.

Consecutive letters, numbers and the underscore are considered "words". Everything else is a delimiter. There has been no indication this will change any time soon.

You should be able to find 'NA' alone; this worked in my tests. However, you will also match 'NAG', 'NATTY', etc.

Stuff like this has been requested before; Evernote staff is pretty well aware of it. You might be interested in the search grammar specification: http://dev.evernote....rch_grammar.php; the section on Matching Literal Terms describes the punctuation thingie.

Consequently, if you type "_NA" and will search for it you will get back only _NA, without NAME, NAG, etc. Same for NA_.

Thank you for this tip, helix. I was thinking the same thing, but got interrupted before I had a chance to post my testing.

I call the underscore "The Evernoter's best friend" :) . This is because on one hand it is searchable, and on the other hand it is rarely used in daily writing. Thus it is great for instant tagging any common word as a keyword for future searches, without being diffused by similar text. For me the humble underscore successfully replaces the whole EN tag system..
Good luck!
