Enter your keyword in the search field and click the starter button Navigate to the electronic database you plan to use or navigate to a Web search engine. You should find an area on the database or engine main page where you can click an insertion point and type in a key word. That will be the search field. The search field is the area on the screen where you type a word or words you wish to search for. The text you type in the search field is your query.
Some search engines are case-sensitive.
Some are not. However, many search engines will try to locate exact matches for words which include capital letters. Thus, to make a generic search, type the word in all lower-case letters. Type your query in the search field and click the starter button. That button on the screen may be labeled Search or Start or Find or Go or some other word.
