Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of search in which a plurality of candidate of character strings likely to coincide with a designated key word are detected from a text character string, and it is decided whether the candidate character strings detected include a character string coincident with the key word character string. Further, the sequence of detection of character string candidates is determined in such a manner that a portion having a succession of characters coincident with any of a plurality of characters included in the key word character string is selected as a candidate character string.
