Hold the Ctrl keyboard key and press the F keyboard key (Ctrl+F) or right-click (click the right mouse button) somewhere on the article and select Find (in this article). This will bring up a text box to type search words into (see picture below).

Hit the Ctrl+F keyboard shortcut, or go to the Tools menu (gear icon), and then File > Find on this page. (Even simpler if you’ve restored IE’s classic menus.) Start typing the word you’re looking for, and Internet Explorer will highlight it on the page.

If your search bar is hidden and you want it to show on the taskbar, press and hold (or right-click) the taskbar and select Search > Show search box.

Here’s an overview of some of the most useful Google search tricks, from basic tips to new features just recently released.

1. Use quotes to search for an exact phrase.
2. Use an asterisk within quotes to specify unknown or variable words.
3. Compare foods using “vs”

• Google. With over 70% of the search market share, Google is undoubtedly the most popular search engine.
• Bing. Bing, Google’s biggest contender, rakes in 33% of U.S. searches and also powers Yahoo, the U.S.’s third biggest search engine.
• Baidu.
• 4. Yahoo!
• Yandex.
• Ask.com.
• DuckDuckGo.

Search for titles that contain specific words – Like the tip above, you can also find pages with titles that contain the keywords you’re searching for by using allintitle: >Search for multiple items – You can enter more than one query into Google at a time to view all options. Simply key on “OR” between the terms.

You can search for an exact phrase or name in the following ways:

1. By enclosing the phrase in quotation marks.
2. By using phrase connectors—such as hyphens, slashes, periods, equal signs, and apostrophes—in between every word of your search query.

Boolean search is a type of search allowing users to combine keywords with operators (or modifiers) such as AND, NOT and OR to further produce more relevant results. For example, a Boolean search could be “hotel” AND “New York”. This would limit the search results to only those documents containing the two keywords.

A Boolean search requires the following:

1. Enter the desired keywords within quotation marks.
2. Use the appropriate Boolean search term from the list below between the keywords.
3. Select Boolean as the Keyword Option type. (When all desired criteria have been met, click Search to generate the report.)

Boolean methods can be used on any search engine: Google, LinkedIn, or even Facebook. Boolean is a term used to define the process of combining keywords with words called “operators.” These operators tell the search engine how to use the keywords in the search.

There are three basic Boolean search commands: AND, OR and NOT. AND searches find all of the search terms. For example, searching on dengue AND malaria AND zika returns only results that contain all three search terms.

Boolean operators are the words “AND”, “OR” and “NOT”. When used in library databases (typed between your keywords) they can make each search more precise – and save you time!

Boolean Operators are words or symbols used as conjunctions to combine or exclude keywords in a search. Using these operators, you are able to focus your search on the results that will be most helpful. Google also has a few additional operators that work to refine results.

In Google Sheets, in most of the cases, you can use the <> operator to replace the NOT function.
