I need to find some items in a tatabase table, and I want to provide the user with the option of bool search, so if he/she uses it - bool search - the query should only retrive exact matches.

E.g. with 'free' search, a request for "map" should also find "maps", "mapping" and so on. With bool search, only items containing "map" (" map ", to be exact) should be found.

Thanx
