Search Results - Click to Enlarge

The Dashboard starts a search at the most current events in the database (within the Global Criteria) and searches all fields of all recordings (within the selected Search Options). When it finds matches, it lists the results in pages of one hundred (100) or fewer field "matches" per page.

Each Matching Field Is Listed

The Search tool finds results by matching your terms to data in activity fields (User Name, Window Caption, Sender, Recipient, Domain Name, Focus Time, and so on.) Because the matches are by field, the results may list multiple matches for a single recorded event.

For example, one Webmail event may match the search term gun in (1) its window caption, (2) its subject line, and (3) its contents. However, if gun is found multiple times in the email contents ("No, I don't own a gun. If you want information about this gun, talk to..."), only one match appears in the Search Results list, because the contents of the email is a single field.

100 Matches Per Page

To allow you control over your search, the Dashboard lists no more than 100 matches on a page.
