22
23DESCRIPTION     Searches for a (set of) species (not SAIs)
24                that match (don't match) a query or are marked.
25
26                The database is scanned for 'species' (see 'HELP')
27                which contain (or do not contain) the search string within the
28                specified 'field' (see LINK{glossary.hlp}). The corresponding
29                species and the respective 'field' entries are listed in the
30                'HIT LIST' subwindow. The number of hits is displayed after the
31                'Hits:' prompt.
32
33                Define whether matching or non-matching species should be
34                        listed by pressing the appropriate combination of left
35                        and right buttons in the top area. When performing
36                        multiple searches, define whether the list of 'species'
37                        should be replaced by the new results, and whether newly
38                        found 'species' should be removed from or appended
39                        to the existing list.
40
41                Select a 'field' from the 'Search Field' subwindow.
42
43                Type the search string in the 'Search string' subwindow.
44
45                Press the <SEARCH> button.

56                        Select search field:       'full_name'
57                        Type search expression:    'pseu*tol*'
58                        Press:                     'SEARCH'
59
60                2. Search for all species that are marked:
61
62                        Select:                    Search all species that are marked
63                        Press:                     'SEARCH'
64
65                3. Search for all species that are marked and for which
66                an entry is present in the field 'reference'
67
68                        Select:                    Search all species that are marked
69                        Press:                     'SEARCH'
70                        Select:                    Keep species that match the query
71                        Select search field:       'reference'
72                        Type search string:        '*' (=search existing entry)
73                        Press:                     'SEARCH' again
74
75
76WARNINGS        If the hitlist becomes too long, it will be truncated.
77                Nevertheless all operations work on non-truncated hitlist!
78
79                Changing the sort order will most likely show different items, because the
80                list gets truncated after it was sorted.
