2. Text searching
Enter your search terms in the free-text search
box.
To speed up the search uncheck boxes to
deselect data types
e.g. If you want Statistics, deselect Market
reports, Companies and shares and Sources
1. Simple searching
Most searches can be fulfilled with a simple list of keywords you require in your results. For example,
canned food France will return only data containing the above words. This is equivalent to searching for
canned AND food AND France
We advise against searching with only a common single term such as 'food' or 'USA' as the number of
matches returned will be extremely high. It is better to qualify your search as in Food USA.
Note that search terms are not case-sensitive.
To search for optional words use OR in the search. For example, canned OR frozen returns data containing
either canned or frozen. It is best to combine optional and required searches using AND and OR with
brackets. For example, canned AND (France OR Germany)
If brackets are omitted, 'AND' is resolved before 'OR', which may not produce the results you want. For
example, canned OR frozen AND food is interpreted as canned OR (frozen AND food). To prevent
ambiguity, explicitly specify the resolution order using brackets: (canned OR frozen) AND food
2. Excluding terms
You can exclude results by placing AND NOT in front of them, so: canned AND food AND France AND
NOT volume will return the same as the first search phrase described above, but exclude any results
containing the word volume.
3. Phrase matching
You can search for a phrase by including it within speech marks: canned food AND France returns only
data containing "Canned Food" as a phrase; this is more specific and should return fewer matches than:
canned AND food AND France
Note that text searching is accent sensitive so you will need to include these or type part of the word/s in
question without accents (eg type 'este lauder' or 'lauder' not 'estee lauder).
