Search Tip

The default timespan selection is All Years, where "year" refers to the year that the information was entered in the product database and not necessarily when the document was published.

However, search results are sorted by Publication Date. When you restrict your search to a smaller timespan (such as Latest 2 weeks), the system processes all items (both new and old articles) and sorts them by Publication Date.

The timespan you select will remain in effect until you end your session or until you make another selection.
