The “Search results” window for the word “man”

Users of MAXQDA are already familiar with the representation of search results in this form, as it is the same as in the MAXQDA search function.

In the table heading, information is displayed regarding how many texts the word has been found in and how many located positions there are all together in the text.

The column “Document” in the table indicates the name of the document in which the word has been found. In the column to the right, the search item (here: “man”) is listed and the number of the relevant paragraph in the document is shown in the fourth column.

Tip: Clicking once on the column title will sort the table by column.
