When using this symbol, be as specific as possible. For example, do not use keywords

like TH*. There will not be enough room to show all the results of a keyword that is

too general.

Tips for entering keywords

•

To specify an exact phrase in a Keyword or Title WishList, surround a set of words

with quotation marks (to enter quotation marks, press PAUSE (

). For example,

the keyword PAUL SIMON might also turn up a documentary about Simon Bolivar

with a director whose name is Paul. Use “PAUL SIMON” to be certain you find

programs that only feature Paul Simon.

•

If you enter more than one keyword in Keyword or Title WishLists, they only find

programs that match all of your keywords (for example, “GEENA DAVIS” FLY).

•

If you want to include an exact phrase and additional keywords, there should be a

space between the final quotation mark and the beginning of the next word. You can

place a space character by selecting SP on the grid of letters.

•

Replace hyphens ( - ), slashes ( / ) and periods ( . ) with spaces. For example, you

would use the keyword phrase 20 20 to search for the title “20/20.” For an Actor

WishList for Catherine Zeta-Jones, use ZETA JONES, CATHERINE. You can place a

space character by selecting SP on the grid of letters or by pressing FWD (

).

•

Any other marks, such as apostrophes ( ’ ) and ampersands ( & ), are ignored. For

example, you would use the keyword phrase 6 OCLOCK NEWS to search for the title

“6 O’Clock News.” (Note that commas ( , ) are also ignored, except in actor and

director WishLists, where they are essential.)
