Search Tips
Single word search
Note: You cannot use wildcard search at the start of the word
Wildcard Search: Single Character
The single character wildcard search looks for terms that match that with the single character replaced. For example, to search for "text" or "test" you can use the search:
te?t
Wildcard Search: Multiple Character
Multiple character wildcard searches looks for 0 or more characters. For example, to search for test, tests or tester, you can use the search:
test* or te*t
Phrase Search
Proximity Search
Specify the the gap of words between the first and the second word
To do a proximity search use the tilde, "˜", symbol at the end of a Phrase. For example to search for a "apache" and "jakarta" within 10 words of each other in a document use the search:
jakarta apache˜10
