To Modify Search Fields

1. In the Projects window, expand the Configuration node in the project you want to modify, and then double-click the Enterprise Data Manager file.

   The file opens in the NetBeans XML editor.

2. Scroll to the page-definition element in the gui-definition element.

3. Scroll to the eo-search element, and then to the simple-search-page element you want to modify.

4. In the simple-search-page element, scroll to the field-group you want to modify, and do any of the following:

   • To modify the name of the boxed area in which the field group appears in the EDM, change the value of the description element.

   • To add a new field to a field group, create and name a new field-ref element in the appropriate field-group element.

   • To modify the name of a field defined for a field group, change the value of the appropriate field-ref element.

   • To specify whether a field is required, add a required attribute and specify a value defined in EDM Search Field Definition Elements.

   • To specify whether a field is used for range searching, add a choice attribute and specify a value defined in EDM Search Field Definition Elements.

   • To delete a field from a field group, delete all text between and including the field-ref tags that define the field to be deleted.

   • To delete an entire field group, delete all text between and including the field-group tags that define the field group to be deleted.

5. Save and close the file.
