There are several Boolean Operators in LawMaster that can be used in searching.
You can use the AND, OR and NOT Boolean operators outside of word in text searching and can use the full table list in the Search Condition window anytime you are required to search for items via Word in Text in LawMaster.
From Enquiries > Folios searching on the File / Word in Text option from the Search By drop down > Search, select the breadcrumbs next to the "Keywords" field or by selecting the breadcrumbs when you have entered your search option.
| Search Condition Options | |
| WORD | Prompts the user for a word to be inserted into Search Condition |
| PHRASE | Puts quotes around the highlighted phrase or prompts you for a phrase to be inserted into Search Condition |
| ( | Inserts open bracket in Search Condition |
| ) | Inserts closed bracket in Search Condition |
| AND | Combines two conditions and evaluates to TRUE when both of the conditions are TRUE Eg "general*" AND "letter*" |
| OR | Combines two conditions and evaluates to TRUE when either condition is TRUE. Eg "letter*" OR "fax*" |
| NOT | Negates the Boolean expression. Eg "letter*" AND NOT "general*" |
