Searching Local Corpus

The search option allows you to find a value(s) throughout either the Local Corpus or the Remote Corpus (paragraph 6.2). To do that, right click on a given node you want to search in and select Search (you might also choose a number of nodes by holding Ctrl and clicking on them). A window will appear in which you can specify where exactly you want to search e.g. within Corpus, Session, Catalogue, Actor etc.

Selecting search locations

In the search window you can further specify in which column you want to search. By clicking on column a drop down list appears which contains pre-defined common values and previously entered column names; it is also possible to add any column name to this list, or remove arbitrary items by selecting the value and pressing shift and delete; deleted values again have to be retyped and searched for in order to appear in the drop down list again. After specifying the column (i.e. Name), give the value name you look for, e.g. "Blance", and click on Search.

By selecting either Equal () or Unequal (), you will need to specify whether your search results should match the word you filled in or rather show you where this word does not appear.
