Searching for Information
The search facility allows you to quickly find an entry by typing in the first few letters of the sorted
field. The highlighted cursor immediately moves to the nearest match. The Directory supports
character-by-character searching.
In this method, the operators have to select the search field. The search starts as soon as you
begin to type characters. For example, if you are searching for the name TUDOR, as soon as
you type in T, the display scrolls to the T section of the directory. When you type U, the display
moves to the first entry beginning with TU. With each character you enter, you get closer to the
entry you are looking for.
Search Field
The Search toolbar displays the text that you have entered to locate a contact.
Search field allows you to view and edit the search text. The characters that you enter for
searching are displayed in this field.
You can edit the text using the mouse or keyboard. Use the HOME and END keys to move about
in the field. BACKSPACE or DELETE will delete individual characters.
If you press ENTER when you finished typing, the search text will be selected so that you search
for a new entry without having to delete the previous entry. If you want to continue the search,
press End before entering additional characters.

Click on the search bar of the directory toolbar or press F8, and type in
the first few characters of the text you want to search.
