Abstract

A system (10) and method (80) for formulating data search queries (142) is presented. A user interface (50) operable to specify an unstructured search criteria for a search query (142) on one or more documents (40) is provided. An input portal (23) is exported to receive a data excerpt (51) selected to be searched against the documents (40). A selectable inclusiveness control (52) is exported to specify a granularity of inclusion (141) of matching tokens (142) within each document (40). A selectable proximity control (53) is exported to specify a degree of nearness (140) of the tokens (142) within each document (40). Tokens (142) derived from the data excerpt (51) and parameters corresponding to the granularity of inclusion (141) and the degree of nearness (140) are compiled into the search query (142).
