Is there a way to get search results that only find the words I'm looking for?
I don't how to phrase that.

Here is an example....

I'm searching for "bar code reader".
I don't want results that only have "code" or only "bar" or only the word "reader".

Thanks.

    To search for the exact phrase, put it in quotes, e.g. "bar code reader". Also try "barcode reader". By quoting it, I got 22 hits; without the quotes, 99, some of which were missing one of the keywords.
