Another common feature of P6 tables is the Find command. Unlike the Search feature which shows you all matching results at once, the Find feature searches up or down in a column to find the next single matching entry.
To find entries in a table:
- Navigate to any page with a table of entries.
- Right-click in a specific column of the table and choose Find.
- In the Find dialog box:
- In the Find what field, enter your search criteria
- Select the Match entire words only option to constrain the results to only values that match the exact words as typed.
- Select the Match case option to constrain the results to only values that match the upper or lowercase spelling of the words as typed.
- In the Direction section, select either Up or Down to indicate the direction of the search.
- Click Find or press Enter to search up or down through the rows of values in the selected column. Your matching search results are highlighted in the current table.
- To find the next matching entry, right-click and select Find Next.
- If you change any data, click Save.
Note: You can also use the Replace feature, if you need to find and change data in a table.
To find matching data on a page, however, use your web browser's Find command.
To find entries on a page:
- Navigate to any page displaying field data.
- In your web browser, select Find from the Edit menu. For Internet Explorer 8.x, select Find on this Page from the Edit menu.
- In the Find field, enter your search criteria and click OK or press Enter.
- Your matching search results are highlighted on the current page.
