Duplicate detail records are initially ordered from older to new records, grouped
together by tag codes in ascending order; the columns are ordered by 'Tag Code',
'Created On' and finally 'Record #'. Clicking on any columns will reorder the viewer.
The 'Tag Code' column is fixed, so that it will always be displayed when scrolling the
viewer horizontally. Selecting a record in the 'Dot-Out' column will mark that record
for the 'Dot-Out Duplicates' command, described below.
The Duplicate Viewer has these features:
• Order any column by clicking on that column. Click on the same column
again toggles the order from ascending to descending.
• To search for a record, click any cell associated with a column and begin
typing. The viewer will automatically scroll as it matches values in the same
column as you type.
• Right-Clicking the viewer will display a pop-up menu with these commands:
• Select All will a select all records under the 'Dot-Out' column.
• Select All But First Duplicate' command will select all duplicate
detail records except for the first instance (or the oldest record). This
command only works if the viewer is in the original order.
• Select All But Last Duplicate' similar to the command above, but
instead it will select all duplicate detail records except the last instance
(or the newest record).
• Invert Selection command will toggle the 'dot-out' selection for all
records.
• Select Tag Session... allows the user to change the selection of tag
sessions to search for duplicate tag records. The original selection of
tag session is preserved each time this command is executed.
• Dot-Out Duplicates... this command will automatically dot-out each
records selected under the 'dot-out' column. Before this command is
processed, the user is prompted to confirm to continue the process. In
addition, the user can apply conditional and/or textual comments to
each record that will be dot-out.
