Search in really not working for customers

Is there any way to implement advanced search (filtering) in wss3 search?

How to make wild card search work on wss3?

Thanks in advance

Hi Shah,

In WSS 3.0, the search function is limited.
If you want to implement advanced search options, here are two options for
you:
1. Upgrade WSS 3.0 farm to SharePoint Server 2007.
2. Deploy Search Server 2008 Express which deliver search to your
organization quickly and easily for free.

For more information, please refer to:
Microsoft Search Server 2008 Express
(http://www.microsoft.com/enterprisesear ... press.aspx)
Planning and architecture for Search Server 2008

Hope the information can be helpful.

Sincerely,

How do you make a wildcard search using MSS or MSSX 2008?

Thanks,
Matt
