Perform a Search Using a Basic Query
This procedure describes how to perform a search using a Basic query to define the search criteria. Basic query is useful for
users that are unfamiliar with Structured Query Language (SQL) or find it more convenient to define the query without using
SQL. PlanetPress Search constructs the SQL query from the set of search criteria defined using the drop-down lists and boxes.
Once search criteria have been selected, users can switch to the "SQL"view to see the SQLequivalent, which can help learn
the SQLused by PlanetPress Search to a certain extent. To do this, in the Search type box, select Basic, enter the search crite-
ria, and then in the Search type box, select SQL to view the SQL statement PlanetPress Search constructed for that Basic
query.
If no search criteria is specified when performing a Basic search, PlanetPress Search returns the complete contents of the
search database.
To perform a search using a Basic query:
1. Load the appropriate search profile. See "Determine the Currently Loaded Search Profile" (page 22) and "Load a
Search Profile" (page 21).
2. Verify the Search Configuration area of the PlanetPress Search Program window is visible. See Change the View on
Search Results if necessary.
3. Adjust the Search options in the User Options dialog box. In particular, you may want to adjust the Search is case sen-
sitive option. See "Set User Options" (page 12).
4. In the Search type box, select Basic.
The Search Configuration area displays the Basic search query interface.
