Put the email in quotes when searching. Otherwise the @ is interpreted as special character.

In FMP 8.5, on both a Mac and PC, if I copy data in a field, switch to find mode, paste the unformatted text and perform a find, I get a not found message. The data is present but it cannot be found when pasted in find mode? The field I am using contains an email address. If I manually enter characters before the @ sign the find works, as soon as the @ sign is added to the find, it does not work. Any suggestions as to why this happens?



Thanks.



Charlie
