Using "wildcards" in search is one of the most usefull virtualdj features, and i'm sure many people don't know it, or never heard about wildcards before.
Virtual dj search box support: * ? characters as wildcards.
So if half of Madonna's songs in your collection are written as "Madona" and the other half as "Madonna", you can type "Madon*a" or "Madon*" to find them all.

Some samples about using wildcards:

Something to add, you can use more than one wildcard at the same time, usefull in some cases.
