This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).
We invite you to shape the future of IBM, including product roadmaps, by submitting ideas that matter to you the most. Here's how it works:
Start by searching and reviewing ideas and requests to enhance a product or service. Take a look at ideas others have posted, and add a comment, vote, or subscribe to updates on them if they matter to you. If you can't find what you are looking for,
Post an idea.
Get feedback from the IBM team and other customers to refine your idea.
Follow the idea through the IBM Ideas process.

In IBM i search there is san option to restrict the search to a column range, however this also affects the results view as only those columns of the line is shown.
I think it more as the search criteria is a key and the result is the whole line.
For instance, we have special comments that specify compilation options or commands that start whit *#C in columns 7 to 9. If I specify these columns, the results view shows something like:
MemberName
*#C
*#C
*#C
instead of the following which gives me what I need to see without having to open the member.
Member Name
*#C: ovrdbf objlst qadspobj
*#C: ovrdbf mbrlst qafdmbrl
*#C: ovrdbf fldlst qadspffd
If I don't specify the column range, I also get code such as
#result = #qty*#cost;
