Search Functions

You can search for folders within a cabinet using the cabinet’s index fields as search criteria.

Click the Show Search button to display the search fields at the top of the cabinet.

Each search field corresponds with an index field for the cabinet. In one of the search fields, enter all or a part of the value you want to search by.

Click the Filter button and select the appropriate filter operator. The following table describes the most commonly used operators:

Select this operator…	To search for…
Contains	Folders whose index field contains the value you entered. For example, if you are searching by vendor and you enter "sol", your search results might return Solar Solutions, Dover Solid Waste Management, and Elm Street Gasoline.
StartsWith	Folders whose index field starts with the value you entered. For example, if you are searching by vendor and you enter "Sol", your search results might return Solar Solutions and Solander Electrical.
EqualTo	Folders whose index field contains the exact value you entered. For example, if you are searching by vendor and you enter "Solar Solutions", only those folders with that exact vendor name are displayed.
GreaterThan	Folders whose index field contains a value that is greater than the value you entered. For example, you could search for invoices greater than $500. If an invoice is exactly $500, it will not be displayed in the search results, however.
LessThan	Folders whose index field contains a value that is less than the value you entered.
Greater Than or Equal To	Folders whose index field contains a value that is greater than or equal to the value you entered. For example, you could search for invoices that are $500 or more. In this case, an invoice that is exactly $500 will be displayed in the search results along with the higher amount invoices.
Less Than or Equal To	Folders whose index field contains a value that is less than or equal to the value you entered.
