[AccessD] Query Grid - Exact Match

Hey Charlotte
Fairly simple to pull just TIME. I find the occurence and location of  
time in the string and then get the characters that may proceed and may 
follow it. If they are upper and lower case letters it gets punted. And 
basically that is where is falls down.
This doesn't work as of yet.
Timeand Day
Timeto  go home
They would not get selected.  And that is where it gets messy. One easy 
out would be to show exact matches and then a list of other possible 
matches. 

Anyway I may just delete my CONTAINS EXACT WORD ONLY query option.
Thanks
