SEARCHING
DOCUMENTS
This
is one of the most important functions of eDocPlus, which
enables you to find your documents on the basis of the
criteria you define.

Click
on the find icon on the Toolbar or press the Find
function from the Documents menu and the Find
Document dialogue frame will appear. Then, in the
Text to Find field, write the name of the text
(words, numbers etc) included in any of the documents
fields you have selected (check them below).
The
search in fields include the following options: Name,
Keyword, Subject. If you click on all these fields, then
eDoc will search for documents that include the text you
want to find through the words in all these fields.
If you select the Exact Search field, eDoc will
find you the documents that include exactly the word in
the specific fields you are searching.
If
you press Date restriction, eDoc searches for documents
that have been created during the specific time period
that you have defined.

By
pressing the button Change Folder,
you define the folder in which the searching procedure
will be achieved. Then the Folder Selection
dialogue frame will appear, where you select the folder
in which you will find the documents you want. If you
don’ t select any folder then eDocPlus will search through
all folders (root).
You
can perform a combined search by changing the current
search term (press buttons 1-5) and defining the “OR”
or “AND” operation between different search terms.
After
you have defined the searching criteria, press Find!
and the searching procedure will start.

Then
a Searching Results list appears, including the documents
eDoc found. This list works in the same way as the Document
window, thus you can select exactly the same functions
with the Document window (open, view, duplicate etc).

Furthermore,
you can find the exact position of the document by selecting
Go to Document from the submenu that appears when
you rightclick on the mouse.
If
you press the left button of the mouse on one of the columns,
then the documents are classified on the basis of the
selected column.
