Advanced Query Syntax
Some hints on query formulation
- A query term can consist of either a word or a phrase.
Phrases are indicated by using
quotes
( for example "pipeline safety"). If you search
for a phrase (in quotes), the query
will look only for exact matches.
- All terms are equally weighted in the query.
- Lots of common words get removed from the query. You can
use them, but they will be
stripped out of the query. Examples are: "and", "not",
"the", "am", "about", etc.
- Example: If your query is "pipeline safety" and natural
gas the query results will include
each document that contains either the phrase "pipeline
safety" or the word natural or the
word gas or some combination of these terms.
