Fill in as much as you'd like. Using more than one line will narrow the
search. If you choose Yes for "Words adjacent," you can type in the phrase
computer programming and the system
will understand that you want only records that have the word computer
NEXT to the word programming. Adjacency is not performed if the set
contains more than xxx records.
Lowercase letters will find matches of capitalized words also. For example,
computer will find matches for computer, Computer
and COMPUTER.
Boolean AND is assumed between words. You may use the Boolean operators AND,
OR and NOT in your search string. For example, you could type heart or
cardiac to retrieve all records having heart or cardiac
in them.
Use the ? character to find matches that contain portions
of words. For example, gun? will retrieve gun, guns, gunners,
gunnery, gunning, etc. In another example, ? ology will retrieve
anthropology, archaeology, psychology, etc. The ? character
may also be used to find variant spellings. For example, alumi?m
will find both the American spelling, aluminum, and the British
spelling, aluminium.
