Λύχνις Δαν Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Hi ya, Given the testing on the two related threads (http://www.accordancebible.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10035 and http://www.accordancebible.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=10036) here I am prompted to ask what are the supported wildcards for use in KEY number queries ? I have scoured the documentation and cannot find indication of any support, yet some few cases do work. It seems primarily that the form "[KEY G134?(valid numbers)]" works. You can use a variety of delimiters like , or - or underscore in some cases - you do not appear to be able to use space. You are able to express G1341 G1344 in compact syntax "[KEY G134?(14)]". But there appears from all my tests to be no range character, so one cannot express 3-7 for example. Thx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Simpson Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 Yes, I would be interested too. I noticed that * also works (i.e. [KEY G13*] seems to search for G13, G130-139, G1300-1399. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Steffens Jr Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I would like to know this as well. Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Brown Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 To answer your question (sorry I didn't get to the other threads earlier!) there are a couple of points: 1) Due to a bug (fixed in 10.2.1 now!) any invalid syntaxes *inside* of a KEY command were causing a crash. 2) Due to another bug (also fixed in 10.2.1!) ranges of characters didn't work inside of a KEY command. However, ignoring points (1) and (2), all wildcard syntax is supported inside of a KEY command, and follows our normal wildcard rules. The documentation for wildcard syntax is found in the Accordance Help, at: Biblical Research and Analyses > Search Criteria > Searches Using Symbols I hope this helps! 10.2.1 is just around the corner, FYI.

Ken Simpson Posted July 23, 2013 Share Posted July 23, 2013 That is cool. Thanks. Don't suppose that can/could be done for verse searches or ranges.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
