use a blank space to separate each keyword.
- Specify search criteria. Select 'Word' if you want the keywords
to match as a word. Otherwise, select 'Pattern' to match
keywords as a part of words.
- If you specified more than one keyword, define search logic.
If you choose 'Or' logic, the search will return
any topics containing any one of the keywords. If you choose 'And' logic,
the search will return topics that matches the entire string.

it will search all the forums in that conference.
