Can't use more than one word to narrow search

Hi,
I used to be able to narrow my search by using more than one keyword in the
"A word or phrase in the file" field. I'd type in a word, separate with a
comma, type in another word and press "Search" and it used to narrow my
results based on the files that contain those words. Now it won't find
results if there is more than one word, but will bring up files if I search
using just one word. I have tried each word separately and come up with
files, but not if I use them together.
Please help as my job depends on being able to bring up a few files by
searching this way (looking for resumes with certain skills).

Thank you!
 
Hi Shara,

I've never used a comma to separate multiple words, so I can't say whether
or how that used to work. Perhaps they changed the rules at some point.
What I know DOES work is to separate multiple words with a SPACE. The help
on thes fields is TERRIBLE, so I don't know how the search decides whether
you've entered a phrase or just multiple separate words.

Anyway, use a space instead of a comma, and that should do the trick.
