Fundamentals > Using Selection Dialog Boxes > Finding Records in a Selection Dialog BoxA selection dialog box can contain many records. You may find it necessary to search for the information you need. Use the Find drop-down list and the starting with field for full or partial-text searches on one column. The Siebel application automatically assumes a wildcard exists at the end of text entered in the starting with field. This means that if you search for Siebe, the Siebel application looks for all words beginning with the letters Siebe. CAUTION: Any spaces you enter in the starting with field when performing a find will be searched for, which is not similar to performing a query. For example, if you are looking for a contact with the last name Smith, and enter Smith followed by a space in the starting with field, any contacts with the last name Smith will not be found. This is because the system is looking for each character (all the letters in Smith and a space). |
