Search Engine Instructions

This search engine indexes standard web pages, Adobe Acrobat files, and MS Word files.
Choose the "Match" setting for your search.

• "All" requires that all the search terms you enter be present in a document.
• "Any" requires that only one of the search terms you enter be present in a document. The more search terms that are found in a document, the higher it will appear in the search results.

Choose the "Search Index" (when that option is available). NMC's web site can be divided into several, smaller sections (sites), and search indexes have been created for several of them, e.g., the M-TEC site. A search box is available in the sidebar of most M-TEC web pages, and it searches only the M-TEC web pages.

Search Tips

Truncation (searching for variations of words):

By default, the search engine will return only those documents that contain all of the words you search for.
You may truncate search terms and search for variations of words by placing an asterisk at the end, e.g., "engineer*" will search for "engineer," "engineers," "engineered," and "engineering."
You must supply a minimum of three characters along with the asterisk for this to work, e.g., "en*" will not work, but "eng*" will.

Searching for a Specific Phrase:

Place quotation marks around the phrase, e.g., "indicators of success".

Including or Excluding Words:

If you select "Any" from the "Match" setting, you may also emphasize which search terms must appear as well as state which terms you do not want to appear by using a plus (+) or minus (-) sign in front of terms, e.g.,
    +engineer -engineering
will require that "engineer" appear in a document while simultaneously require that "engineering" does not.
