That works and is very powerful. It restricts the results to only those that contain the words in proximity to each other. I found that NEAR/5 ensures that the terms are within 5 words of each other, NEAR/10 within 10 words, etc.

It also appears that every search term is highlighted, regardless of whether it is part of the group of terms that satisfy the proximity condition. In other words, every occurrence of "red" and "apple" in the item is highlighted, as well as "red apple" that are in proximity. I don't know if this is intended, and I would prefer that only the terms in proximity be highlighted since only they satisfy the condition, but it is certainly much better than having no such capability.

Thanks!
