# MultiStagePageBackward

Allows you to page backward in a multistage query relative to a specified start date. This option means that you can retrieve results that are otherwise skipped for the multistage query. Specify the number of results to page back to when you use the MultiStageStartState parameter to set a start state for a multistage query . For example:

    http://<host>:<port>/Action=Query&Text=test&MultiStage=True&MultiStageStartState=20?3:1-10/10;4:1-10/15&MultiStagePageBackward=15

In this example, 15 results previous to the set of results represented by the start state return. Without the `MultiStagePageBackward` setting, these are skipped. In this case, if stage two contains 15 or more matches, the last 15 results from stage two are returned. If stage two contains only 10 matches, the remaining five results are returned from stage one.
