Searching Microsoft for Clipart

G

When I am searching for clip art, I find one that is kinda like (tech term)
the picture I need. I then look at the description for the headings it is
under and run 2 words of those headings to assist in filtering the results.
Unfortunately, running a search with 2 words listed in the description comes
back as 'nothing found.' This is in conflict with Microsoft's statement of
'A search with 1 or 2 words will return the best results.' Tried with comma
and without. Same result so I can't really filter and have to search through
50+ pages when could have searched through -2. Example: babies/dividers or
baby/divider or variations thereof. I'm using WinXP and Word 2003. Am I
missing something? Am I understanding the MS quote wrong? It just doesn't
like me?

I've found the same. It seems to be one word or nothing. I find this very
unsatisfactory.

There are a few clipart keywords that work with two words. It is one of those
things you come upon by chance. I'd like to see two words when looking for
hi-res pictures. The keyword is highresolution (one word), but you can't use
highresolution+anything else.
