LateToTheGame 31 Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 I need to find all notes that have a string of eight digits in the title. The search term is an eight-digit number that always begins with the number "1". Examples: 10012184 10359300 An additional wrinkle is that sometimes the eight-digit number is part of a numbered list: Examples: 1. 10837756 2. 12930846 I very much appreciate any thoughts on how to proceed with this search Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,863 Posted August 12, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted August 12, 2023 You can only search for the beginning of a string of characters. Out of luck if the numbers are embedded into others, leading the searched characters. Trailing numbers are not important, only leading ones. They can't be taken away by wildcards either.

Solution LateToTheGame 31 Posted August 12, 2023 Author Solution Share Posted August 12, 2023 Helpful. Not a clean search, but it does the job. Intitle:1 Intitle:1. Intitle:2. Intitle3. Etc... Thank you 1 Link to comment
Level 5 PinkElephant 8,863 Posted August 12, 2023 Level 5 Share Posted August 12, 2023 Intitle is OK to search titles only, but it won't limit the search to exactly 8 digit numbers. Link to comment
