IC-CAP 2002 Search

Search Tips

1. Enter one or more keywords.
2. Searches are not case sensitive.
3. Use the asterisk (*) as a suffix wildcard character in keywords.
   Example: enter param* to find documentation with keywords such as parameter or parameters or parametric.
4. Use quotes to find an exact phrase.
   Example: "parameter extraction"
5. Enter multiple keywords, such as model parameter, or a Boolean expression, using AND, OR and NOT.
6. Entering model parameter is the same as entering model and parameter.
   Note: multiple keywords entered without a Boolean use the AND expression.
7. Use an expression like parameter or extraction to find documentation containing either keyword.
8. You can also use parentheses in Boolean expressions.
   Example: (extraction and measurement) or optimization
9. Use NEAR operator to find keywords that appear near each other.
   Example: enter model near parameter to find documents with model and parameter appearing near one another.
10. Besides using NEAR operator, you can specify how close keywords could be.
    Example: enter "model w/5 parameter" (with quotes) to find documents where model and parameter appear within a frame of 5 words, or "w/7 model parameter optimization" to find model, parameter, and optimization within a 7 word frame. Common words are not counted as part of word frame.
11. Error Messages
    Error occurred. Do Ctrl-Refresh/Reload. See Error Messages in Search Tips below.
    This error typically occurs in Internet Explorer. It happens when you open the Search window, then return to the documentation using the browser's Back button or any of the documentation navigation features, then reopen the Search and enter a query.
    
    Workarounds:
    
    1. Do a Ctrl-Refresh to refresh the Search window, make sure the "show in new window" option is checked, then re-enter the query. If this does not work, close all browser windows, and reopen IC-CAP Help (Help > Topics and Index).
    
    
    2. To avoid this error, open two IC-CAP Help windows. Open the first one and open the Search window in it, then continue to use this window only for searches and opening topics from the list of results. Open a second IC-CAP Help window and use it only to navigate through the documentation.
