Indexing in dtSearch and Data Grid


Be sure to make note of how commonly searched for strings appear in indexes such as dtSearch and Data Grid in Relativity.

If you are running a search for a currency figure such as '$9,000' it will appear in a dtSearch index as:

9

000

whereas a Data Grid search will have it as:

9,000

- [Data Grid search doesn’t index special characters, with the exception of comma and period only when they are surrounded by text.]

An email address such frank@yahoo.com would be indexed in dtSearch as:

frank

yahoo

com

. . . but in Data Grid as:

frank

yahoo.com
