How to use the tool
Prerequisite:
None
Steps:
- Set the Active Layer to the layer you would like to search.
- Click on the Adhoc Query button.
- Define the search parameters (using SQL) in the Advanced Search menu.
- Once you have constructed your search statement, use one of the buttons long the bottom of the panel. The buttons perform these functions:
- New - This will create a new selection, and will replace any previous selections you had for the Active Layer.
- Add - This will add the selected features to the existing selection set.
- Remove - The features that result from the Search operation will be removed from the selection set for the Active Layer.
- Refine - All bar the selected features will be removed from the selection set.
- Cancel - Closes the Advanced Search menu without running any searches.
After running an Advanced Search operation, the selected features are highlighted in the map in bright blue and the records appear in the Data Grid.
A sample Advanced Search is shown below, but these will vary markedly from one organisation to the next.
