Compound search

Hi,

suppose I want to find "holidays" after "work".

The text, which I want to search has 50000 lines.
The first word is "work" and the last one is "holidays".

I do a

:/work/;/holidays/

The resulting match is the whole text somehow.

But may be I only want to find "holidays" which not
such a huge gap after "work"...

Is it possible to search for "holidays" right after work
in less than a defineable distance or no "holidays" at all?
Or is this to hard work? ;)

Have a nice weekend!
Best regards,
mcc
