Joshua, thank you for working with me on this. I tried it on Tiddlywiki.com and saw that it worked perfectly. I also quickly tested it in a new file with just one tiddler with a few words thrown in. It worked again.
This time in my desired file (in the Advanced Search), I got a plain zero. The only customization on this Tiddler is that I have it set so that a new tiddler has a custom title of "New Story." Do you think that may have an affect? I originally created this TiddlyWiki a couple years ago, so I have no idea offhand where I made that change to see if that is the problem.
