Westlaw NZ Tip - Searching for Compound Terms

Did you know Westlaw NZ supports the ability to search compound terms?  Simply add a dash between words to locate the hyphenated word, the word as one and as two separate words.

For example: Searching for task-force will locate task-force, taskforce and task force.

task.force

For example: Searching for by-law will locate by-law, bylaw and by law.
