# Phrase and wildcard searching in Help

You can search for words or phrases and use wildcard expressions.

Wildcard expressions enable you to search for one or more characters using a question mark or asterisk.

The table below describes the results of these different kinds of search.

Search for | Example | Results
--- | --- | ---
A phrase | 'new operator' or new operator | Topics that contain the literal phrase new operator and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying new AND operator, which will find topics containing both of the individual words instead of the phrase.
Wildcard expressions | esc* or 80?86 | Topics that contain the terms ESC, escape, escalation and so on. The asterisk cannot be the only character in the term. Topics that contain the terms 80186, 80286, 80386, and so on. The question mark cannot be the only character in the term.
