1. Search words are not case sensitive. For example, "amco" will match "amco," "Amco," and "AMCO."
2. Plurals and Suffixes of words are ignored. For example, "cooker" will also match "cook," "cooks," and "cooking," among others.

Typing more than one word in the search box will find pages containing all those words (except when using boolean operators; see the next tip). If you wish to search for a specific phrase, enclose the phrase in double quotes.

Examples:

baking dish

This finds any pages containing both the words "baking" AND "dish" in the page (though they may appear in different parts of the page)

"baking dish"

This finds only those pages containing the complete phrase "baking dish"

You can also use and, or, and not when searching.

Examples:

pots or pans

This finds all pages containing the word "pots" or "pans."

pots and pans

This finds only those pages containing both the words "pots" and "pans."

pots or pans not flower

This first finds all pages containing either the word "pots" or the word "pans" BUT any pages containing the word "flower" are removed from your results.

You may use an '*' at the end of a word or phrase to find variations.

Example:

can*

This finds all pages containing any words that begin with "can," such as "canning" and "candy."
