thank you for your posts ..
the "*" is any word .. hopefully, i should be able to identify sentences in a
text and then apply one of these 3 rules ..
(1) A * *
find the sentences that include the word A and to its left exactly two words
(any words)
(2) A * * B *
find the sentences that include the words A and B with between the word A and B
exactly two words (any words) and to the left of word B exactly one word (any)
(3) * * A
find the sentences that include the word A and to its right exactly two words
(any words)
hope it is better
thanks

: There's no syntax I know of that'll give you this kind of query out of the
: box. The closest thing would be span queries, which will give you things
: like A**B, meaning "give me all documents where A is NOT MORE THAN 2 words
: away from B. This is not what you're asking for, since it would also return
: A*B and AB though...
there's also some ambiguity in wether or not the "*"s inthese examples can
be any term, or must not be the other terms you are dealing wiht (ie: does
"A A A" match #1 and #3? ... does "A A B B B" match #2.

: > give me all documents with word A prefixed by exactly two words
