Network help search uses an implied AND (&) between search terms; for example, searching for ad hoc match only returns results that include all terms. This is the same as searching the following:

ad & hoc & match

Using this example, if you wanted to search for match-related topics but don't want to include ad hoc match results, you would use the NOT (!) operator:

match ! (ad hoc)

Note: The parentheses are required for multiple-word terms.

For broader searches, the OR (|) operator returns results for any of the search terms you provide. For example:

(match | merge) & rules

This example combines results for match & rules and merge & rules. The parentheses are required to include results for each combination. The & in this example is included for clarity and is not required.

Finally, all searches can include double quotes to match the encloses search terms exactly as they appear; for example, a search for "ad hoc match" would only return results including that exact phrase as typed.
