When a users types in the value they are searching for, they cannot find it. For example, They enter "Bahamas", but they don't see it in the list. If they enter "The Bahamas" it displays in the list. Is there an attribute that searches "contains"?

You can try using a wildcard, for example *searchterm will search for anything that contain your searchterm, and !*searchterm will search for anything that doesn't contain. Hope this one works for you.

Hi,
* wildcard will behave like contains.
So, while searching write *Bahamas.

Correct, I would like to have it automatically search as a "contains" instead of as a "starts with". Afraid most submitters aren't aware of using the *

Hi Lisa,
You can configure the goto search to use contains instead of >= but not the list header search im afraid.
