In Data Explorer you can set up search filters for indexed data and perform a search using a number of search criteria.

Note: To do this, file indexing must be enabled.

Setting Up Search Filters

1.Select the option Find from the Search dropdown list box in the toolbar of the Data Explorer window, or click on the Search button in the toolbar of the Data Explorer window.

3.Add a new search filter and give it a name.

4.Under Search Criteria specify the properties that you want to find.
