SEARCHING FOR INFORMATION

Advanced search query options
There are two text search options that you can use when searching a database view or a domain for a document.

Click More in the Search bar or Domain Search form and select or deselect the options to turn them on or off.

Use Word Variants

This option finds words with the base word + certain suffixes. For example, a search for "swim" will also find "swims," "swimming," "swimmer," and even "swimmed." It will not find the variation "swam," however, because the base word has changed, or "swimmet," or "swimsed" because the suffixes are not acceptable with that word.

Fuzzy search

This option finds documents that have matches similar to your search.
Sample queryFinds

Califorrnia (incorrect spelling)California (correct spelling)

Palo Alto (correct spelling)Paloalto (incorrect spelling)

Note A database must have a full-text index for you to be able to search it using either of these options.
