In addition to specifying index values for a basic index name search, you can use advanced index value search methods to search for a wider range of documents. You can use these search methods:
Wildcards
List of Values
Expressions
To use the wildcard character:
In the New Search page, specify the index data by using the asterisk character in at least one field. For example, specify SM* to search for documents with a name that begins with the characters “SM.”
Click RUN to begin the search process. ApplicationXtender Web Access searches the active application for all records that match the specified criteria. If matching documents are found, a list of those documents appears in the Query Results page.
To use the search list:
In the New Search page, select the index field for which you want to specify a list of values, and then click the Search list icon that is next to the field.
In the List Search dialog box, specify a value for the index field.
Click Add to add the value to the list.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each value that you want to include in the list.
To edit the values, you can replace a value from the list with a new value, delete a value, or delete the list.
Click OK.
Click RUN to start the search.
To use expressions:
In the New Search page, select the index field for which you want to specify a range, and then click the Search range icon that is next to the field.
In the Range Search dialog box, select the type of comparison you want to use.
Note: The DATE and TIMESTAMP fields support two additional expressions. The Within and Older Than expressions enable you to specify a number of days from the time of execution, rather than specify a date. For example, a value of 60 for the Older Than type of comparison indicates a search for documents that are older than 60 days.
Specify a value for the selected index field.
Note: If you select Between, also type a value in the And text box.
Click OK.
Note:
Ensure that you use the correct format to specify an expression syntax. If the expression syntax is incorrect, an error message appears.
An expression search does not return any null index values. To search for a null index value, use {Null} or <Null> as the search criteria.
