Table 1.4: Filter Field Text Strings
Typed in the Filter Field Results
<String>
Displays a filtered list of items that contain the word specified. For example, typing
“email” would list any items that contain the word “email”.
“<String>”
Displays a filtered list of items containing the exact phrase, including spacing and
punctuation, surrounded by quotation marks. For example, typing “email server”
will display items that contain the phrase, “email server”.
NOTE: The DSView software will provide a closing quotation mark if it is omitted.
(<String>)
Overrides the default (that is, left to right) order of precedence during evaluation of
a filter string using parenthesis (). For example, searching for email or Email and
server or service would be the equivalent of ( ( ( email or Email ) and server ) or
service ), which may not be the intended search. The DSView user may choose to
instead group the search terms with parenthesis, such as using ( email or Email )
and ( server or service ).
<String1> AND <String2>
Displays the items that contain both of the stings of text. For example, typing email
AND server will display items named email-server-3, email-server-2, server email
and so on.
<String1> OR <String2>
Displays all items that contain at least one of the strings of text. For example, typing
email OR server will find any items that contain the string email or the exact
string server.
NOT <String>
Displays all items that do not contain the string of text. For example, typing
NOT email will display all items except those containing email (email, email
server, email-server-1 and so on will not display).
