CPL Search Programs
Update: As of Concordance 2007, and especially Concordance 10, some CPLs
listed here may not work correctly. Especially any CPLs involving working with
Tags. Also, please be aware LexisNexis Concordance has released a new set of
CPLs specifically geared towards working with Concordance 10. I hope to get
those posted soon. - 05/31/2009

ASCI2QRY.CPL |
See TextFiletoQuery.cpl |
|
|
Attach.cpl |
See FindAttachments.cpl (This program is included with
Concordance). |
|
|
attach2.cpl |
Same as "FindAttachments.cpl", but requires two fields to
match attachments. Typically used when BEGINATTACH and ENDATTACH fields are
provided. Note: Fieldnames must be specified on lines 27-28 of the CPL. Use
Concordance CPL Editor ("File | Edit") to update the CPL. |
|
|
attachauto.CPL |
Same as FindAttachments.cpl, but attachment range field is
specified on line 27 of the CPL; since the field is already specified, the
script runs automatically, no need for user intervention. Use Concordance
CPL Editor ("File | Edit") to update the CPL. |
|
|
F3_print.cpl |
Prints the Search Review (double magnifying-glass) screen
of queries and their respective occurrence/ document listings. |
|
|
FindAttachments.cpl |
Based on the active query, this utility searches and
retrieves all attachment documents based on the contents of the
user-specified "ATTACHMENT" field. For example, let's say you got a hit on a
doc with a Bates range of AB01-AB05. The ATTACHMENT field in this record
indicates that the "parent" attachment range is AB01-AB20. Attach.CPL
searches/retrieves all other documents which contain AB01-AB20 in their
ATTACHMENT field, and combines these results with all docs in the original
query. The result: All docs in the original query, plus all attachments.
Obviously, this program depends on the accuracy of the data in the
ATTACHMENT field. (This program is included with Concordance). To Find
Attachments based on two fields (such as BEGINATTACH and ENDATTACH fields),
see attach2.cpl. |
|
|
Rank.cpl |
Sorts query based on search hit ranking. Hits are ranked
based on a search term's number of occurrences in the query vs. the total
number of occurrences of those words in the entire database. |
|
|
Synonym.cpl |
Synonym.CPL has been superceded by the "File | Dictionaries
| Synonyms" feature in Concordance EX and higher. This CPL can be used in
older versions to create synonym lists to be used by the Concordance search
engine. Creates user-defined keyword equivalencies, e.g. a search for "car"
can be made to also retrieve "automobile", "Ford", "Chevy" etc. See the text
of the synonym.CPL for full documentation. |
|
|
TextFileToQuery.cpl |
Executes queries from input file (plain ASCII). Each "hit"
document is tagged, then all tagged documents are grouped together in a
final query. Written to collect thousands of queries, so that users need not
search for "1 OR 2 OR 3 OR...2001 OR 2002." WHY? Typically, opposing counsel
hands you a list (on diskette if you're lucky) and says "Produce these."
TextFileToQuery.cpl automates the search for those documents by using that
list itself as a QRY file. (This program is included with Concordance). |
