Advanced Person Lookup (Alpha)

You can perform an alphanumeric search on the Advanced Person Lookup (Alpha) page, using a combination of demographic and address fields as criteria. Using a combination of required and optional fields, you can form a search as precise or general as you prefer. An alphanumeric search looks for profiles that exactly match the criteria as you entered it, without allowing for misspellings or typographic errors. You can use wildcard characters (a percent sign to indicate multiple unknown characters). This type of search also supports searching on a range of values, such as a range of dates for a date of birth.
