Can Search be less 'strict'?

Hi,
I was searching for a folder which had the words 'Black Box' in it. I knew I had it somewhere but it might have had some words before 'Black Box' so I couldn't just manually search alphabetically.
So I used the Search function and in Name, I simply entered: black box (with Attributes set to Directory). However nothing came up!? So I reduced the search to: black, and of course found quite a few, among which....'Black.Box'!
You guessed it, that dot between Black & Box was the problem!
Isn't there a way to make the search a bit more relaxed, so that it just finds each occurrence of the words black & box, but wherever they may be in a folder/files name? So that not only "The.Big.Black.Box" would be found but also something like "A Black Hat and a Red Box" would be also found?
Thanks!
