Query

There are two ways to search for reference. The options for a fast search are displayed in the main form beneath the list of the items. You can change this arrangement using the  /  button to place the query options on the left side of the item list (see image below right).

 

To search for references, enter the restrictions in the fields for the search conditions and click on the  button. The specimen found in the database will be shown in the reference list. To add references with differing search conditions click on the  button. To clear all entries in the query fields use the button.

If you want to remove entries from the selected list, choose them and click on the button. If you want to keep the selected entries in the list and remove the rest, click on the button. This will not delete the data from the database, but remove them from your query result. With the resp. buttons you can change the order of the results between ascending and descending.

To hide the area containing the search fields click on the  button. If the search area is hidden and you want to start a new search, just click on the  button.

With the button you may control auto-remember of the last submitted query parameter. If you re-start the application and connect to the same database, the last used query will automatically be submitted. If you prefer to switch off auto-remember, click the button and it will change to .
