I don't really understand this -- the TERM search uses the same
keyword index as the KEYWORD search. (At least, that's my memory -- I
haven't had my hands deep into this part of the program code for
quite a while now.)
Although when searching for a word shorter than 3 letters long, it
might be that TERM falls back to a full text search rather than an
indexed search. Though I wouldn't expect that to affect the KEYWORD
search.
Just out of curiosity -- try using Keyword Input/Edit to change "NK"
to something a bit longer. I don't _think_ this should make any
difference here, but...
