I am having a challenge related to researching some names.
I usually use two programs that have a very limited search function. Sometimes I need to search for a name, but I only know part of that name, or sometimes I even have the name to search for, but because of some numbering the searched part is not found.
For example:
I need to locate the name "Ashley Demir de Almeida", but I only have knowledge of the last name "Demir". But the program does not recognize this search. It is necessary to search at least "Ashley Demir" to be able to locate.
Or if I search for "Ashley Demir de Almeida", but there is something before or after the searched name, like for example "1245-Ashley Demir de Almeida-Candidata" the program does not return the searched name.

Is there any way to locate words in the window of other programs, even if the program does not provide this function, or if it does, it does not provide it efficiently.

Sorry but I'm not sure I understand. In which programs do you search? FastKeys cannot read the database of other programs to perform the search.
