1. Searching for records
We start the search by typing the search string into the row. Upon entering the first character, the records matching the entered string are displayed.
We move through the records with the mouse or with the arrow keys, until we find the record that we are looking for. We select the record by clicking the OK button or by pressing the Enter key on the keyboard. The program will take us from the search window back to the form and display the record we have selected.
2. Selecting criteria
If we want to search for data in the search table by the value of another data, we select the desired criterion from the dropdown list in the Search by field. We can also select the search criterion by pressing the Alt key on the keyboard and clicking the name of the selected column in the table. Simply clicking the column name will sort the data according to the selected column.
