Searching with PinPoint
When you enter a word as search criteria, iTX identifies the stem of that word — i.e. the main
section of the word. The stem may appear in words that are closely related to the one you
enter. For example, "sail-" is the stem of sailing, sailed and sailor.
In a stemming search, iTX automatically modifies search criteria to include any words that have
the same stem.
This makes it easy for you to specify search criteria when you are unsure about the exact form
of a word in a text field; you do not have to enter all the variations of this word, just any word
that contains the stem.
You turn stemming on or off through the Stemming check box:
