The Search Panel
The Search Panel provides two different methods for searching through your Search Database.
If the Search Database is empty, you will not be able to click the Search button, and the SQLtab will remain empty.
Basic Search
The Basic Search panel is used to pro-
vide an easy to use search func-
tionality while remaining flexible in
its use. This procedure describes
how to perform a search using a
Basic query to define the search crite-
ria. 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
the Criteria Dialog.
To perform a basic search:
1. Make sure a search profile
has been loaded. For details,
see Load a Search Profile.
2. Select the Basic tab from the Search Panel.
3. Select the appropriate options from the drop-down menus:
l Document:Select from a list of available document titles located in the Search Database to filter the results for
a specific document title, or select All of them to ignore the document title. The Document title refers to the Plan-
etPress Talk IDin the document's properties in PlanetPress Design (see Set up a document)
