Use the search screen to select data

Search results that appear in the grid must match all the criteria you enter. We recommend you search by one or two of the most helpful criteria types. If you enter too much criteria, you can exclude the data you want.

1. On the search screen, enter the criteria to use to find the data. The criteria options available depend on the type of data you need.

To search the database for all data of that type, leave the criteria fields empty.

2. Click Search. The program searches the database for data that meet the criteria entered and displays the results in the grid.
3. If the search returns multiple pages of results, use the First, Previous, Next, and Last buttons to navigate through the pages of results.
4. In the grid, find the data to use and click Select next to its listing. You return to the previous screen.
