Search Term	Definition
item	Searches for datafields containing the word "item".
"item"	Searches for datafields containing only the word "item" and nothing else.
!item	Searches for datafields that does not contain "item".
!"item"	Searches for datafields that contain anything other than just the word "item".
""	Searches for datafields that contain nothing. (empty)
!""	Searches for datafields that contain anything at all. (not empty)
abc xyz abc && xyz	Searches for datafields containing both "abc" and "xyz".
"abc xyz"	Searches for datafields containing the phrase "abc xyz".
abc, xyz abc OR xyz abc \|\| xyz	Searches for datafields containing either "abc", or "xyz", or both.
>123	Searches for datafields containing a number greater than 123.
>=123	Searches for datafields containing a number greater than or equal to 123.
<123	Searches for datafields containing a number less than 123.
<=123	Searches for datafields containing a number less than or equal to 123.

All Fields: (include descendants)

Chemistry Elements:

This field is supposed to store Chemical Elements, and therefore gets searched differently than other fields in ODR.

Elements entered without a prefix will be interpreted as requiring ALL OF them.

Any elements prefixed with the "!" character will be interpreted as requiring NONE OF them.

If you have at least two elements prefixed with the "~" (tilde) character, then this will be interpreted as requiring AT LEAST ONE OF them.

As an example, the string "C O ~N ~H !Na !Ca" will return results that have ALL OF(C, O), and have AT LEAST ONE OF(N, H), and NONE OF(Na, Ca).

Additionally, the term "all" is a shortcut to place every unspecified element in the NONE OF category...the string "C all" will return results that are composed entirely of Carbon.
