Are there any plans in the works to allow "wild card", "contains", "starts with", "ends with", and/or Boolean searches?  
 
As we search through inventory (we have 18,000 part numbers), BOM's, Work Orders, etc, it's very time consuming to find certain data because we can't do those kind of searches.
 
 

Watch this, it may help.

Just because I'm a pain in the rear I'd like to offer some suggestions after having watched each video. I mostly like the way it's set up but have a few things I don't like.

I know that $ means LIKE but can you expect the average person to know that? Maybe instead of symbols you could use short words? (LIKE, EQUALS, LESSTHAN, NOT EQUAL, etc?)

This is cool but it seems sort of not user friendly. You can save and load but the filenames are mangled, there's no easy way to save the current query onto itself. That's a rather routine thing to want to do.

This is good but why not make the main search field be substring by default? That would be the most intuitive thing to do.
