Saving and Restoring Lists of Search Conditions

When you exit from the "Chart Search" dialog, the "List of Search Conditions" is automatically saved and then redisplayed the next time you return to the same search screen. However, it is also possible to save and restore lists of conditions to and from files, so that you can re-use them at any later time without having to re-enter each individual search condition again.

>> To save the current list of search conditions

1.Click on the Save to File button

2.Either specify a new file name of your choice, or else select an existing file name to overwrite

3.Click on the Save button

>> To restore a previously saved set of search conditions

1.Click on the Add from File button

2.Select the required file name

3.Click on the Open button

Note: When you restore a set of criteria, they are added to the end of your existing list. This is useful if you have stored “snippets” of conditions that you wish to combine. However, if you prefer to overwrite your existing list, then you must clear the list before you restore the set of criteria.
