Note that if the file containing the search profile is read-only, you cannot save any of the modifications you make to the user
options settings. In this case, any changes you make to the user options settings are available only until you load a different
profile or exit PlanetPress Search. It is common to make search profiles read-only in a network installation. See "Database
Considerations in a Network Installation" (page 41).
Here are the user options available in this dialog:
Program startup options tab
l Select document: Select the document that appears in the Select document box in the Search Configuration area of
the PlanetPress Search Program window by default when PlanetPress Search loads this search profile. Select None if
you do not want PlanetPress Search to display any document when it loads this search profile. This option applies only
to the currently loaded search profile.
l Filter date: Select the date filter that appears by default when PlanetPress Search loads this search profile. The date
filter appears in the Date boxes in the Search Configuration area of the PlanetPress Search Program window, and con-
strains the search to PDFs created during the specified time period. Select None to include all PDFs.
l Use default profile: Select to specify a search profile to load on startup. Use either the edit box or Browse button
that appear to specify the search profile. Clear to load the last used search profile on startup. If you have never created
a search profile (for example, if this is the first time you are starting PlanetPress Search), PlanetPress Search loads the
default search profile, PSearch4.prf, located in the PlanetPress Search program folder.
Printing options tab
l Printer to use:Select the printer to use when you print from PlanetPress Search, with this search profile loaded.
Search options tab
l Search is case sensitive: Select to make searches that use this search profile case sensitive.
l Multi-page mode: Select to include a set number of the pages that follow the page on which the search result occurs
with the search result when you view, print, or save that result. Use the spin box to set the number of pages. For exam-
ple, consider that you have Multi-page mode selected and set to 2, and you print a search result that appears on page
15 of the PDF. The printed result consists of three pages: page 15, 16, and 17 of the PDF. This setting applies to the cur-
rently loaded search profile.
l Open PDF after creation: Select to have PlanetPress Search automatically open a PDF that it creates from search
results. This setting applies to the currently loaded search profile.
l Database access for new profiles
l Use Windows NT integrated security: Select to use the same user name and password on the SQL database as
you use to log on to the computer on which you are running PlanetPress Search. You use this option when you create a
new search profile for an SQL Server database. PlanetPress Search requires this information to construct the con-
nection string for the database. It saves the connection string in the DatabaseDirectory of the search profile.
l Logon with User ID/Password: Select to specify the user name and password to use with the database, in the
User ID and Password boxes. You use this option when you create a new search profile for an SQL Server database.
PlanetPress Search requires this information to construct the connection string for the database. It saves the connection
string in the DatabaseDirectory of the search profile, encrypting the password before saving it. The value that appears
by default in the edit box for this option is the last one saved to a profile.
Database options tab
This tab sets the options for creating, rebuilding, and refreshing the database associated with this search profile. Note that if
the search profile has its ReadOnly entry set to 1 (as for example in a network installation), these options are not available in
the User Options dialog box.
l Connection timeout: Adjust to set the number of seconds PlanetPress Search waits for a response from the data-
base before reporting a connection failure.
