SEARCH ONLY Stop List

The SEARCH ONLY Stop List will be applied only during searching.

Use the Stop List of the Translate Table to define an alphabetized list of stop words. The Stop List is simply an alphabetized list of stop words. Stop words are a common method used to reduce the size of an index. Certain words which are deemed to be of questionable importance within a search are added to the Stop List. When a word contained within the Stop List is encountered, it is discarded rather than indexed, thus reducing the size of the index.
