Tips for Searching
- Look for words with the same prefix. For example, in your query form type key* to find key, keying, keyhole, keyboard, and so on.
- Search for all forms of a word. For example, in the form type sink** to find sink, sinking, sank, and sunk.
- Search with the keyword NEAR, rather than AND, for words close to each other. For example, both of these queries, system and manager and system near manager, look for the words system and manager on the same page. But with NEAR, the returned pages are ranked in order of proximity: The closer together the words are, the higher the rank of that page.
- Refine your queries with the AND NOT
keywords to exclude certain text from your
search. For example, if you want to find all
instances of surfing but not surfing the Net,
write the following query:
surfing AND NOT the Net
- Add the OR keyword to find all instances of
either one word or another, for example:
Abbott OR Costello
This query finds all pages that mention Abbott or Costello or both.
- Put quotation marks around keywords if you want
Index Server to take them literally. For
instance, if you type the following query:
"system near manager"
Index Server will literally look for the complete phrase system near manager. But if you type the same query without the quotation marks:
system near manager
Index Server searches all documents for the words system and manager
