Relevant search terms unusable

[PhilCo]

I occasionally need to update/upgrade a C++ builder add-in. In this case, it's UniDAC. There is a wide variety of installation/update/upgrade techniques used for C++ Builder add-ins. Different products use different techniques, requiring different instructions.

Unfortunately, DevArt's help file does not provide the relevant instructions. Even if it did, there can be situation-specific exceptions. So the next logical place to look for update/upgrade instructions is here, in this forum. And the logical search terms to use are things like "update" and "upgrade".

Unfortunately, the forum software tells me that such words are "common" and therefore does not allow me to search using those words. Given that this forum is for support of software, which is frequently updated and upgraded, these exclusions seem to be, well, a silly mistake.

I don't know what you can do about it. In the meantime, what search terms should I use, when I am looking for posts about "updates" or "upgrades" or "installing" or the like?
