The 'Find Panel', in the upper left portion of the grid, consists of a text box, a 'Find' button, and a 'Clear' button.
Typing within the text box causes an incremental search to occur,
highlighting occurrences of the typed search string within the grid columns.
-
Find - immediately executes the query, without delay.
Can also used to refresh the query.
-
Clear - clears the contents of the text box.
-
A previous search can be selected from the dropdown box.
Examples of search strings:
register --> selects records that contain "register" in any search column.
check register Dave --> selects records that contain either "check" or "register" or "Dave" in any search column.
"check register" --> selects records that contain "check register" in any search column.
screen +"Richard Fisher" --> selects records that contain both "screen" and "Richard Fisher" in search columns.
data +entry -mark --> selects records that contain both "data" and "entry" in search columns, excluding records that contain "mark".
menu mask -file --> selects records that contain "menu" or "mask", excluding records that contain "file".
From:Roller +Subj:"currency mask" --> selects records that contain "Roller" in the column that starts with "From", and also contain "currency mask" in the column that starts with "Subj".
import -From:Steve --> selects records that contain "import" in any search column, excluding records that contain "Steve" in the column that starts with "From".
