It is still happening in 8.1-rc2.

NOW when a second ago before I pasted the value, it did NOT work!!!

This is definitely an issue where the formatting of the text is coming into 
play.

I submitted a bug report 18343. I attached a sample stack. I'd be interested if 
this is happening under 8.1 RC2. They may have fixed this and I don't know it 
yet. I'd also be interested if this is happening with Windows 8.0.1, but I have 
a real job here and have spent a LOT of time chasing this one.

Here's a nice little twist! This works if the arguements for itemOffset come 
from fields. it only breaks if you hard code them (or in my case pull the 
values from a database. I am willing to bet a nice steak dinner this is being 
caused by uniCode. The engine is probably expecting to search for unicode 
values and instead is finding UTF8 (or whatever it is).

Thanks Panagiotis. I will submit a bug report to that effect. Unfortunately I 
need wholeMatches because contacttypes can be IT or SITES among other things 
and replacing IT in contacttypes will result in SE instead of SITE. I am 
working around it but this can bite someone in the arse hard if they are not 
carefule.

It looks like "set the wholeMatches to true" is the culprit. Removing this
line results in the expected behavior.
