After clicking on the PowerSearch form:
- Click on the "Add keywords (Index Terms) to your search..." link. A new window will pop up that allows you to search the index for a particular company, industry, or subject.
- Type a word that relates to your search. In the image above, the word "Baseball" is used. Click the red Find button.
- In this example, "Baseball" refers to a subject, so scroll to the bottom of the list for subject results. Click the appropriate box for "Baseball."
- Click the red OK-Add to Search button to include this index term.
After you complete the rest of your search, you will find that the index term "Baseball" should appear at the bottom of documents on your hit list with a high relevancy score.
