Locating Basic U.S. Company Information: Summary
In Lesson 1 we used the "BEST" technique to conduct a search for a specific company—BEGIN, EXPAND, SELECT, TYPE.
| Example: | begin 516 expand co=intel select E number(s) type s1/medium/1 |
| Example: | begin 101 select global(w)crossing/co type s1/medium/1 |
These two techniques will be used throughout this course when we are looking for company names.
