Natural Language Query

This query allows you to perform a query in ordinary English without needing to use any form of the Query Syntax. It is much simpler to use than a Command Based or Menu Assisted query but gives you slightly less precise control over exactly how the query will be interpreted.

The default websites contain a link to the Natural Language search from the home page. 

• Type your query keeping your request brief and to-the-point.  The query can be phrased as a statement or as a question.
• You can restrict the query to certain formats of documents or time frame by using the filter options.
• Once you have built your query, select the indexes you wish to search and click the "Search" button.

Note that natural language is not as precise as a full query syntax. It should, however, return correct results for the vast majority of your queries. If it does not retrieve what you want the first time try re-phrasing the question or using another search option, such as the Menu-Assisted Query.
