    Filtering your search results

    The above search will search all tables/columns.
    Search results can be narrowed down as follows

    • Filtering for display
      • By default, all table columns are searched.
      • If you wish to narrow your search, uncheck the boxes as appropriate.
    • Filtering the search range
      • By default, all projects (or databases) are searched.
      • To narrow your search, select a project (or database).
      • When a project (or database) is selected, its lower-level selections are displayed one after the other, allowing you to refine your selections more finely.
