save the request and retrieve it when you need it later. You can save and retrieve
find requests without having to go to Find mode. FileMaker
Pro automatically
saves the last five finds you have performed so you can access them again.
Once a find is saved, the saved find is also available to any network clients that
share the account. For more information about saving find requests. see Help.

> Revert Request. Requests are committed, for example, when
you click out of all fields, go to a different layout or request, or perform a find.
