To 
limit the returns you can also put your search in  quotes "  " . In 
your example on goggle using simply, 
<SPAN 
class=133330214-31082003> 
<SPAN 
class=133330214-31082003> reinforced concrete beams
<SPAN 
class=133330214-31082003> 
<SPAN 
class=133330214-31082003> returns 69,600 entries. By placing it in quotes 
you finds just 7,020.
<SPAN 
class=133330214-31082003> 
The 
same thing applies to the AB search engine. type Metastock importer and you 
retrieve 10 headings, type "Metastock Importer" and you retrieve just 5. Click 
the "Search titles only" box and that number is whittled down to just 
1

Re: AFL brackets and parentheses
As with any 
searchable database some things come up quickly and easily, other things come up 
with difficulty and some things never show.
I was once trying to 
search a large data base for certain subjects dealing with reinforced 
concrete beams. The entries were beams, concrete, plus other relevant 
descriptors. The first 500 hits were for articles on "light beams" in 
physics journals.
 
We are not on the 
same page.  I did what you suggested and the only topic that came  up 
that was relevant to Metastock was the Metastock Importer. I checked some of the 
other entries and there was nothing related to Metastock and of course nothing 
was highlighted.

Lets just drop this 
thread. I have solved my problem.

Metastock under search and got 13 titles.  I then double clickeach one
