6.1  Basic Searching

In the main toolbar of the catalog window is a box for typing in a search word: press the button to the right to perform the search.

Simple Search is available from the main window


Search results are grouped by class - Photo and Trip in this case


Search results are shown in a table. You can view any record in the main Catalyzer window by clicking on the row. You can also sort the search results by clicking on the column headers. If your result includes more than one type of record these will be displayed as Tabs, which you can click on to see (e.g.) just the Image records, or just the Experiment records which match.

The next section shows how to perform more complex searches, combining multiple terms.
