Title, Location, and Rank Columns in Search
When using Help full-text search, you can sort the topic list by selecting the Title, Location, or Rank column headings.
Title indicates the topic title. Location specifies where the topic is located within the Help documentation. The topic rankings under the Rank column are not determined by any standard, such as most hits. You can safely ignore the Rank column when trying to narrow down your search results.
The following table lists the different topic locations and their corresponding descriptions.
