Search Function: How to Pinpoint Item in Long Thread?
Case in point: the Hampton Inns review thread on the Hilton board. It's around 15 pages long. If a Hampton location comes up positive in the search, how on earth do I find the relevant post in less than an hour?

Thanks for any ideas you may have.

You can't

The search option is too limited to tell you which page to look at.

Click on each page.

When the page opens, hit control F and enter the keyword you're looking for.

ScottC is correct; the search is problematic. I'd go with gleff's advice...
