Thanks Derek, I forgot about that part as well. Indeed, it tripped me up
early on.
Though in this case, if you are searching based on Memo, you should get
all results, from multiple accounts, no?

Another thing to consider is that the search is really searching on a
SPLIT and not a TRANSACTION. If you're trying to search for something and
using different accounts in your query, you could end up in an empty-set
result because you cannot have a split where split->account == A **AND**
Hmmm... I just happened to need to do a Find and tried this out.
I intentionally chose an account that I knew was definitely *not*
involved in the transaction I was looking for. (or any other
transactions that would match my criteria)
Yet, the results were the same if I had this account

You don't need to 'select' an account before doing a search. (it has no
bearing on the search at all)
Always conduct searches when viewing the main accounts tab, and if you
want to specify accounts, do that in your search criteria.

Is this a feature, or a bug?
When I select assets then do a find search, I can find an item, "cart, poly strapping", being bought, and the cost of goods sold
entry when it leaves inventory, but the AR account is also a sub account of assets and has the description on the invoice line
