Boolean and Proximity Searching
How do I search for several words?

Individual words can be combined using the Boolean operators:
OR	connecting two words, will match documents containing either word.
AND	connecting two words, will only match documents containing both words.
NOT	before a word, will match documents that do not contain that specific word.
The proximity operator NEAR is like a more refined form of the Boolean operator AND:
NEAR	connecting two words, will match documents containing both words, only if they appear within 10 words of each other.

You can change the proximity (the radius) by putting a number from 1 to 99 after NEAR.

For example:
    mike OR michael matches documents containing either of the words mike or michael.
    romeo AND juliet matches documents containing both of the words romeo and juliet.
    NOT january matches only documents that do not contain the word january.
    death NEAR5 taxes matches documents in which death and taxes appear within 5 words of each other.

1.	If it isn't already open, double-click on the Data Detective Searcher icon on the desktop.
2.	Click on a word in the Indexing Notebook to insert it into the search query field.
3.	Click on the Bull's-eye icon to insert a Boolean or proximity operator, or type it manually.

Note that the Searcher is case-insensitive, so lowercase operators are also allowed.

4.	Pick another word from the Indexing Notebook, or type it manually.
5.	Click the Magnifying Glass, or hit Enter to perform your search.

Note that AND is the default Boolean operator. If you have two words not connected by an operator, the Searcher will automatically insert AND between them.
