I have been trying to modify the Search.asp so that I can search by Topic_ID, but I keep failing to get it working. I was able to modify the forum.asp to show the TOPIC_ID so that user can use that ID as a ticket number. With that ticket number, they can use that number instead of the keywords. Any help is appreciated.
I am actually editing the search_form_enhancem-34-0004a.zip version, but just renamed it to Search.asp. However I don't think that would really matter.

The link to that file is http://www.snitzbitz.com/mods/download.asp?mid=65&fid=57<

This is pretty cool. I've been trying to do something similar, and could not figure out what to do. Thanks.

In the forum.asp Search for code below , which is around line 595 for mine. Yours may be different.

Response.Write "</a></td>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td bgcolor=""" & strForumCellColor & """ valign=""middle"" align=""left"">" & vbNewLine & _
" "
if Topic_Sticky and strStickyTopic = "1" then Response.Write("Answered: ")
Response.Write "<a href=""topic.asp?" & ArchiveLink & "TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & """>" & ChkString(Topic_Subject,"title") & "</a> " & vbNewLine
if strShowPaging = "1" then
Call TopicPaging()
end if

Add the following code below right on top of the code above

Response.Write "</a></td>" & vbNewLine & _
" <td bgcolor=""" & strForumCellColor & """ valign=""middle"" align=""center"">" & vbNewLine & _
" "
Response.Write "<a href=""topic.asp?" & ArchiveLink & "TOPIC_ID=" & Topic_ID & """>" & ChkString(Topic_ID,"topicID") & "</a> " & vbNewLine
