Ok, sorry but now I under what you mean about the "user interface" which I never used before because I never needed it.

Anyway, I made a test set of a folder with 8 large text files (400-500MB each) and then applied the attached searches using just a surname I know is in all of the files from doing a TextEdit search. With both searches, I only get a hit from one of the eight files which is also the same result if I do a simple search for just the name.

Is it possible something went wrong with the indexing of these files or am I still doing something wrong?
