Running a simple database search using placeholders

A search query using placeholders searches for the search pattern in the display values of the selected object definition.

To run a simple database search in the Manager with placeholders

  1. In the Manager, select the View | Database search menu item.

    The database search is shown in the navigation view.

  2. Enter the following information in the Search area.

    1. Search in: Select the object definition. All object definitions in the currently selected category are displayed.

    2. Search text: Enter the search term. Use of wild cards (*) is permitted. Case sensitivity is not taken into account.

      Example:

      Pattern or pattern* - searches for all entries whose display value starts with the "Pattern" string

      *Pattern - searches for all entries whose display value ends with the “Pattern” string

      *Pattern* - searches for all entries whose display value contains the “Pattern” string

    3. Full-text search: Disable the option.

  3. Start the search using the Search button.

TIP: Press to set the current query as the default for future search queries.
