Well if \bword\b is actually a solution, then presumably coding up an
"exact word match" option
should be easy. Just substitute the \b before each word and call the
regexp code.
Actually I thought I was pretty expert in regexps, but I havn't heard of \b.

Good point.
David, may I suggest (fitting to what you might expect from me ;) that the
already existing sf page (http://sf.net/projects/biblecs) be used to

You can. Search for " fool ", using exact search.

I wish you could do plain word searches in Sword. I.e. I wish
