Hello and Happy New Year!

Hoping someone can help me with a search issue i'm having.

My Calibre Library has over 4,000 cookbooks from all over the world, covering every type of cuisine, cooking method, etc.

I want to create a virtual library for the books that have cookie recipes (for my teenage daughter who loves to bake cookies)

Many of my books "contain" cookie recipes, such as complete cookbooks and beginner cookbooks - basic cookbooks that have a bit of everything, but I want a virtual library of the books with "cookie" or "cookies" in the title and ONLY in the title.

I've tried to do this through an advanced search. I go to the "title/author/series" tab and enter "cookie" or "cookie" in the title field - leaving the other fields blank. Even though i'm entering the search criteria in the "title" field of the search feature, the results that come back are books that have the words ANYWHERE within the metadata - such as comments, tags, book description, etc.

I've tried the "advanced search" feature and entered the words "cookie" or "cookies" in the "all these words" field and within the same search then went through the cumbersome task of filling in the "but dont show entries that have any of these words" and in the "dont show", I put in words such as "complete" cookbook" etc. The results of that come back as dont show books with cookies OR complete - not show "cookies" but not "complete" (if that makes sense)

Seems no matter what type of search I try, I cant limit the results to the title and only the title of the book - if the word i'm searching for is NOT in the title, but is in the "comments" section, then it shows up as part of the "title" search (when it shouldn't)

Im guessing that this is either an undiscovered program glitch OR I'm doing something wrong! Likely, its me.

Can someone please help me. If you need more details or screen shots, please let me know.

Thank you!
