More search notes (Profile-based and Full-text)
• When you do profile-based searching and enter more than one criteria,
the search engine interprets that as “find me all the documents that
contain ’term A’ and ’term B’ in the profile fields as I have entered
them.” For example, if you entered the term “National” in the Document
Title field and “Motion” in the Document Type field, you would only get
back documents that contained both terms in their respective fields.
• You can conduct combined searches by entering profile-based terms and
by entering terms in the full-text window during the same search. As
mentioned above, the same idea applies, you are “anding” the search
terms together.
• Changes made to documents and document profiles are not immediately
available until the full-text index task runs. What this means is that if you
make a change to a document and then try searching for the document
based on a word you changed, you will not see that document appear
(based solely on your changed word) until the full-text index task runs. It
is usually set to run every 3 to 5 minutes.
• All tabs contain a file type filter at the bottom of the Desktop Enabler
Plus window. This allows you to filter the list of viewable documents.
For example, if you set the filter to “*.*” you would see all documents,
regardless of file extension. If you set the filter to “*.doc” you would
only see MS Word documents.
Notes query syntax rules
• Wildcards — Use ? to match any single character in any position in a
word. Use * to match zero-to-many characters in any position in a
word. In profile fields, be sure to put the word in double quotes.
• Hyphenated words — Use hyphenated words to find two-word pairs
that are hyphenated, run together as a single word, or separated with a
space.
• Logical operators — Use logical operators to expand or restrict your
search. The operators and their precedence are not (!), and (&), accrue
(,), and or (|). You can use either the keyword or symbol.
• Proximity operators — Use proximity operators to search for words
that are close to each other. These operators require word, sentence,
and paragraph breaks in a full-text index. The operators are near,
sentence, and paragraph.
