Remarks

The Query class is not intended to be used directly from your code, but is designed to be the base implementation for the Enterprise Search Query object model classes.

Instead, you should use the FullTextSqlQuery class for executing Enterprise Search SQL Syntax Reference search queries, or the KeywordQuery class for executing Enterprise Search Keyword Syntax Reference search queries.

For more information about the Enterprise Search Query object model, see Enterprise Search Query Object Model Overview.
