A full text search facility is Implemented across all Notebooks . This facility allows for records to be returned based on a search criteria of one or more words (in any order), or location within a range of fields in a single pass. The advantages of this are:
One doesn't need to know what field to use when searching as the search is conducted across the following data elements
File Reference
Category
Subject
IID
Source
Repository
Note Details
Case is of no importance when entering search values.
Partial words can be used if suffixed by an asterisk (*), e.g. convi* would search for Convict, convicts, conviction, etc.
Multiple words can be entered in any sequence, e.g. 'convict jones' produces the same results as 'Jones convict'.
The more words the narrower the search.
Each word must be separated by a space.
