This kind of search
is alternative to literal (phrasal) search. The choice is
made at the compilation time.
At BioPD we do NOT support this kind of search.
With proximity search you can perform queries like this:
In this case
proximity works within the field Title. It will find all
the documents which have in the Title field the word molecular
within 2 words of biology. In this case it is not
important the order of the words.
Please, note that you must use parentheses around the
words you want to look for in the field.
This is another case
of Proximity Search.
In this case the order of the words is important. In fact
this search will find all the documents that have the word molecular
up to 2 words before the word biology in the field
Title.
This is a Proximity
Search that finds every document that has at least 2
occurrences of the word biology in the field Title.
The term atleast has to be all lower-case and there cannot
be any spaces between 'atleast' and the number,
i.e. at least 2 biology will not work!!!
