| Basic
search |
The
search tool finds pages that contain all the words you are searching
for. The words can be anywhere on the page. The Search Utility ignores all
punctuation characters in your search text. |
| Adjacent
words |
Use
double quotes to match adjacent words eg: "mexico city". Punctuation
characters have the same effect, so mom@mother.com is equivalent
to "mom mother com". These searches may take longer.

Word
stemming
and synonyms |
Searching for throw will also match the words throws, thrower,
throwers, ... Common mis-spellings and regional variations are also
matched, so teh will also find the, and color will
also find colour and vice versa. Put text in 'single quotes' if you
do not want word stemming or synonyms. |
| Letter
case |
Use
single quotes to match capitals eg: 'Mexico'. |
| Logical
searches |
Use
and, or, not and parentheses ( ) to do
logical searches. To find the words and, or or not
put them in "double quotes". A basic search for swiss cheese is equivalent
to swiss and cheese. |
| Wild
cards |
Use
? to match exactly one character and * to match any number
of characters. For example, mexic? and mex* both match the
word mexico. These searches may take longer. |
