When searching for attachments by name, the file extension is considered part of the last word in the name. So, entering answerstest will not bring up answerstest.docx because answerstest is not the full string. To retrieve this attachment, you must use answerstest.docx or the wildcard character (so a partial string matches): answerstest* |
Advanced Searching
...
Exact Phrase
Use double quotes around the phrase.
Ex: '"cell phone"' will search for pages containing that exact phrase instead of the words, "cell" and "phone" anywhere in the document.
Using OR
Searches for pages that contain either of the words.
Ex: "apple OR mac" will search for pages that contain either the word, "apple" or the word, "mac."
Using AND
Searches for pages that contain both of the search terms.
Ex: "OSX AND 10.7" will return only pages that have both the word, "OSX" and the number, "10.7."
Using NOT
Searches for pages that contain the first term but not the term that appears after word NOT.
Ex: "media NOT social" will find pages that have the word, "media" but not the word, "social."

Ex: "title: Wireless" will find pages that have the word, "wireless" in the page title.
