Search Menu
The Search option conducts a search in the database for all records that match the search criteria data
you enter in the form. The records found by the search are displayed in the search results window. Data
can be in any number of fields in the form or any number of tables.
Only records that match all fields in which data are entered are displayed. An asterisk (*) can be entered
in text boxes to indicate wildcard characters. The Search option is available only when a form that
contains records is open.
Example: Enter S* in an appropriate text box to display any records beginning with S. Example: A
search for badgeholders with the last name starting with Sm* would yield such names as Smith and
Smythers.
If no search data is entered, all records display. Any column displaying in the list box can be sorted by
clicking on the column heading.
Clicking this icon from the Secure Perfect toolbar can also access this option:
