verity search terms

[oak3]

Why is it that verity searches require the AND and OR operators instead of just
saying that by default there's an AND between words? For example, to search a
collection for: government corruption influence if no 'quotes' are used still
treats it like quotes but I want it to be treated like government AND
corruption AND influence but I don't want to type the AND's in there. Is
there a setting to make it default this way or will I have to figure out how to
parse the thing and recognize any OR's that are intentionally stuck in the
search term? Thanks, Oak

Because that's the way it works.

If you don't want to enter "AND" all the time, then pre-process your search
string, substituting AND wherever you find a space.

There are several other parsers, including "Internet", that you can use with
cfsearch. See the CFMX 7 documentation for details:
