I want to find A near B where A may contain more than 1 word
e.g. I want to find the words "risk assessment" within 30 words of method.
In this instance 'A' is "risk assessment" and 'B' is "method"
I tried various combinations of commands but without any real success.
e.g.
"{30} "risk assessment" methods"
and I get a lot of separated words; i.e. risk "alone" assessment
"alone" plus risk assessment "together"
"{30} ({2} risk assessment) methods"
and I get much the same result, except that even the 2 gets highlighted as
a finding.
Is there a way to nest a query such that you have a close proximity of
words that is then joined to one (or more) more distant words
I have tried various combinations but with no success.
Many thanks.
Don
