How can you make an OutLook 2003 Search look for the exact phrase? For
instance, I want to search for ONLY the word "sea", and, don't want to get
all words that begin with sea* (like...SEArch, for instance).

I've tried using single and double quotes, and also adding a space to the
end of the word, but, OutLook still brings up ANYTHING that starts with the
letters.

Thanks.

I don't think you can.
 
Advanced Find can do that. Use the Advanced tab and set the condition to "is
(exactly)".
