More
When you add a condition to a search query in the More section of search, it focuses your search on more specific results. For example, you can specify that you want to find only documents that have a particular number in a particular field, or that contain certain specified words.
Search operators are words and characters that search for words, fields, dates, and numbers in specific combinations. You can use operators to refine your search.
You can search for applications by title or part of a title. The application search looks for matching text in a list of application titles in the catalog application (Catalog.nsf) stored on your home server (or on the catalog server specified in your current Location document).
When you search for an application, you must specify the server to search in. Ask your administrator whether your organization has a server intended for application catalog. You should use this server if available. If not, Search defaults to using your home server.
Domain Search is a powerful tool that allows you to search a Domino® domain, or across several Domino domains, as determined by the Domino administrator (or Domain Search application manager), who also specifies what documents, applications, and files are available for searching.
