Using the Search feature in Cognos 11.0.13 FP1 does not work as one might expect. It probably find the exact object but on top many others. On the other side it might not find the object but some others that are just similar.

Symptom

Search for an object with a specific name does not find it or find many other similar objects but not the one that is expected.
