    :) Articles being being or small doesn't matter. I share practical solutions which I encounter during my consulting assignments. If I stumbled across a problem, there is a possibility that someone else could have the same issue, and hopefully my solution could help the ones who need it!

    I am not sure what you meant by the search thing. Could you rephrase it?
