WebHelp Navigation Pane - Search

Use the WebHelp Search tab to locate Help topics that contain the phrases or individual words you want to find.  The search routine scans text in all topics to find matches.  When the search is complete, a list of topics displays, so you can select a specific topic to view.

Directions:

To use Search:

1.  Click the Search tab located in the Navigation Pane.


 

2.  Enter the words or phrase you want to find.

3.  To display the list of topics containing your search criteria, press [ENTER].

4.  To display the contents of a specific topic, click the topic in the list.
Tip:  You can also press [TAB] to highlight a topic, then press [ENTER].

Rules for Searching:

• Searches are not case-sensitive, so you can type your searches in upper or lower case characters.

• You can search for any combination of letters (a-z) and numbers (0-9).

• The search routine ignores punctuation marks such as the period, colon, semicolon, comma, and hyphen.

• To limit the search results to an exact phrase, group the elements of your search using double quotes or parentheses.
  
  Example:  Entering "click print" shows only topics containing click AND print.  Without the quotes, you will see all topics containing click and all topics containing print.

• You can not search specifically for quotation marks.
