Tips for entering keywords • To specify an exact phrase in a Keyword or Title WishList, surround a set of words with quotation marks (to enter quotation marks, press PAUSE ( ). For example, the keyword PAUL SIMON might also turn up a documentary about Simon Bolivar with a director whose name is Paul. Use "PAUL SIMON" to be certain you find programs that only feature Paul Simon. • If you enter more than one keyword in Keyword or Title WishLists, they only find programs that match all of your keywords (for example, "GEENA DAVIS" FLY). • If you want to include an exact phrase and additional keywords, there should be a space between the final quotation mark and the beginning of the next word. You can place a space character by selecting SP on the grid of letters. • Replace hyphens ( - ), slashes ( / ) and periods ( . ) with spaces. For example, you would use the keyword phrase 20 20 to search for the title "20/20." For an Actor WishList for Catherine Zeta-Jones, use ZETA JONES, CATHERINE. You can place a space character by selecting SP on the grid of letters or by pressing FWD ( ). • Any other marks, such as apostrophes ( ' ) and ampersands ( & ), are ignored. For example, you would use the keyword phrase 6 OCLOCK NEWS to search for the title "6 O'Clock News."
