IBExpert Search function

Search the IBExpert site

When searching for a documentation article, begin your search with doc/. When searching for information on our website, begin the search with main/. A search for more than one word will find pages that contain all of the words. Use quotation marks to search for a phrase. Also use quotes for text with punctuation or special characters. Further search options can be found below.

Searches can be restricted based on page names (name=), backlinks (link=), groups (group=) and other criteria (e.g. list=normal, fmt, list, order, trail) and capped at a maximum number (count=). Name= and group= parameters can contain wildcard characters that display only pages matching a given pattern: an asterisk (*) represents zero or more characters and a question mark (?) represents exactly one character.
