Quick Reference
Comments Tab
Use this tab to restrict your search based on the comment data. If the boxes on this tab are left empty, the search
returns all comments within the criteria set on the Date Modified and Source tabs.
Text The exact text to search for in all comments. This can be a word or a few words. So for, example, typing
redline, and running a search, returns only the comments that contain a single “redline” word.
If you don’t know the exact content of the comment, you can use the wildcards. To match one single unspecified
character use the symbol “?” (question mark). To match any number of unspecified characters either before or
after the text, use the symbol * (asterisk). For example, if you want to find all comments that contain some text
before and after the word redline, type *redline* in the Text box.
Author The exact author name to search for in all comments. Use the wildcards if you don’t know the exact
author name.
ID The exact comment ID to search for. You can only use numbers here.
Status Selects the comment status to search for.
Match Case Select this check box if you want the search to respect lower and upper case characters in the search.
Date Modified Tab
Use this tab to specify a date range within which the comments must have been made.
All Comments The search returns all comments. This is the default option.
