How To Use MILDOCS.COM

The designers behind the MILDOCS.COM web site have tried to make the search functions as simple as possible for basic users, while still providing advanced users with powerful tools for highly controlled searching.

Basic Use of MILDOCS.COM

The easiest way to use the search functions of the MILDOCS.COM web site is to enter the keyword you are looking for into one of the search fields, such as:

   m35a2

After you have entered the word, click the "GO" button, and you will see the list of related ETMs. However, because the search index used in MILDOCS.COM is so complete, you will often get a results list of many hundreds or even thousands of ETMs when you use a simple search. This is why MILDOCS.COM has also provided subscribes with the powerful set of Advanced Search Features described below.
