You can insert the Boolean operators, including AND, OR, and NOT,
in your search string to make your search more efficient.
The Boolean operators can make your search more efficient by narrowing
or widening your search scope. For example:
- database AND "log file"
- Narrows the search to include topics that contain both the term database and
the phrase log file anywhere in the document.
- database OR "log file"
- Widens the search to include topics that contains either the term database or
the phrase log file anywhere in the document.
- database NOT "log file"
- Searches for topics that contain database and do not contain the
phrase log file anywhere in the document.
- database OR "data base" NOT "log file"
- Searches for documents that contain either the term database or
the phrase data base and do not contain the phrase log file anywhere
in the document.
