Special characters and reserved words
The Content Manager views special characters as separators and not as part of a word. When it performs a search with special characters, the terms within the special characters are used.
Along with numbers, the following characters have special meanings: + - ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \. To search for a string that contains one of these characters, precede the character with a backslash (\). If the character is part of a phrase or term, enclose the search text in double quotes.
In addition, you need to place a backslash in front of the following reserved words (regardless of their capitalization):
- CONTAINS
- NEAR
- SENTENCE
- PARAGRAPH
- PHRASE
- IN
- MATCHES
- STARTS
- SUBSTRING
- ENDS
- AND
- OR
- NOT
