Use the skiphyphen parameter of the SocketSearch configuration file to specify how to handle a hyphen when one is encountered. If set to ON, any hyphen or minus sign encountered whithin a section of text being indexed is removed, and the characters on either side made adjacent to each other with no intervening space. If set to OFF, the disposition of the hyphen or minus sign is dependent on the value of blankhyphen. If both skiphyphen and blankhyphen are OFF the hyphen or minus sign remains in the text.

skiphyphen and blankhyphen may not both be set to ON, but both may be OFF.

Example

The value used in the LoadUpdate configuration file must match the value used in the SocketSearch configuration file.
