Using Cognos Analytics 11.0.4 or 11.0.7...

Maybe this problem will go away once I upgrade to 11.0.7 and finally having the ability to use shortcuts again...

For now, users are resorting to using saved searches.

But, the search feature sucks.  If I search for data validation I get everything containing the word data or the word validation or the word validate or [a lot of unrelated nonsense] in the object name or description.  If I search for "data validation", I get nothing -- not even the report named Data Validation.  The search also ignores special characters, so searching for scheduled returns exactly the same as searching for (scheduled).

So they are resorting to putting odd search terms in object descriptions.

On to the new problem:  Once you have 10 saved searches and try to save one more, Cognos says
QuoteYou can save 10 searches.  Delete one to save another.

Is there a configuration setting that will allow me to provide more saved search slots for my users?
