I'm not familiar with your use of the terms "standard model" and "extended model", so take my response here with a grain of salt. There is no way I know of to include documents in the search results that violate the constraints represented by the connectors you use. But if you're interested in getting all documents that match a query, can't you simply use all OR connectors? Out of curiosity, how useful would it be for the query "A NOT B" to return documents that match "B"? Steve
