  • Patent number: 8209323
    Abstract: In one embodiment, an original search input entered is detected. A plurality of stored terms in a record are detected. The original search input is modified to remove an excluded term from the search input to form a modified search input. The modified search input is matched against the plurality of stored terms to form a first result that includes a number of the stored terms. The number of the stored terms in the first result is compared to a threshold value. In response to the number of the stored terms in the first result satisfying the threshold value, the stored terms of the first result are displayed. Otherwise, the original search input is matched against the plurality of stored terms to form a second result that includes a number of the stored terms, and the stored terms of the second result are displayed.
