-keep character
-    * when modifying a record in DATADEX, the character you type to leave the leading bytes of a character field unchanged so that you can modify the trailing bytes.
-key
-    * a field, or column, that is used to select records from a data set, providing fast access to rows. Keys are typically indexed, uniquely identify parent rows, and provide a correlation for joining tables and maintaining data integrity across tables. See also Native keys and OMNIDEX indexes.
-key options
-    * enhancements to OMNIDEX keys that are specified during installation to enable certain retrieval features (like Grouping) or update features (like Batch indexing).
-keyed retrieval
-    * retrieval by an OMNIDEX or TurboIMAGE key field.
-keyword
-    * A word or number that is indexed for an MDK Index
-    * An individual word or value in an MDK Index column delimited by spaces and punctuation. For example, if an MDK Index column contains "Kraft-Ebbing's Bait and Tackle" the words "KRAFT", "EBBING", "EBBING'S", "BAIT", and "TACKLE" are indexed as keywords.
-keyword access
-    * the ability to find rows based on the words contained in a given field, regardless of the order in which the words appear. This is a primary feature of OMNIDEX indexes.
-keyword indexes

-    * indexes composed of a word or words from a specified field in a database row. Renamed to MDK Indexes.

+==== Keyed retrieval ====
+  * retrieval by an OMNIDEX or TurboIMAGE key field.
-    * to look up data by words embedded within strings of text.

-    * refers to an OMNIDEX retrieval of record identifiers by any keyword value or combination of keyword values against an MDK Index.
+==== Keyword indexes ====

-keyword-only retrieval
+==== Keyword lookup ====
+  * to look up data by words embedded within strings of text.
-    * an OMNIDEX retrieval that fetches only keyword values from the indexes. Through OmniAccess, you would call oaqualify with the KEYWD option, and then call oafetchkeys.
