Abstract: A computer receives a request to search one or more secondary documents. At least one of the secondary documents is associated with a primary document. The computer searches at least a subset of the secondary documents for documents that satisfy the search request and identifies at least one secondary document that satisfies the search request.

Abstract: After receiving a first user request including a first set of search keywords, a computer identifies a first set of chunks within multiple documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the first set of search keywords, and displays at least a portion of the first set of chunks, including highlighting the terms matching the first set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a first manner. After receiving a second user request to search among the documents for documents that satisfy a second set of search keywords, the computer identifies a second set of chunks within the documents, wherein each chunk includes terms matching the second set of search keywords, and displays at least a portion of the second set of chunks, including highlighting the terms matching the second set of search keywords in the displayed portion in a second manner that is different from the first manner.

Abstract: A computer receives a user request to replace a first text string with a second text string in a first document and a second document, respectively, wherein the first text string in the first document has a first content type and the first text string in the second document has a second content type that is different from the first content type. The computer substitutes the second text string for the first text string in the first document and the second document, wherein the replacing second text string in the first document has the first content type and the replacing second text string in the second document has the second content type.

Abstract: A method for searching and displaying documents at a computer includes: receiving one or more search keywords from a user of the computer, identifying a set of documents stored at a plurality of data sources, each document including one or more chunks that match at least one search keyword; and displaying in a search results window a set of search results in a text-based display format, each search result including at least one chunk retrieved from a respective document and the chunk includes at least one instance of a highlighted search keyword. In response to a user selection of a first search result in the search results window, the computer launches a first document preview window adjacent to the first search result and displays within the first document preview window a portion of a first document in a display format consistent with a document type of the first document.

Abstract: A computer displays an application user interface, the application user interface including a document authoring window and a search results window. In response to a search request including one or more user-specified search keywords, the computer displays in the search results window a set of search results in a text-only display format, wherein each search result includes a chunk within a respective document that satisfies the search keywords. In response to a user request to view a chunk, the computer launches a document display window in the application user interface and displays therein a portion of the corresponding document that includes the chunk in its native display format. In response to a user request to duplicate a segment of the corresponding document in the document authoring window, the computer generates therein an instance of the segment of the corresponding document in its native display format.
