Searching Tasks

Use the searching tasks along the left side of the Logic Template editor under the SEARCHING task bar to add search commands to the logic template.

The SEARCHING task bar allows you to select from a variety of different searches. The searches that are enabled depend on the indexes defined in the related load definition file. If no load definition file is related to the logic template, then none of the searches will be enabled.

A >> next to a task indicates there are multiple types of searches for this particular task. Placing your mouse over this task will pop-up a sub-menu which will allow you to select from these tasks.

To use the SEARCHING task bar, simply place the cursor in the logic template editor where the command is to be inserted and click the task you would like to insert. This will open the arguments dialog box for the particular task selected.

The tasks available in the SEARCHING task bar include the following
