Running a QueryThe query function allows the user to specify a search and filtering of the data. The query function is made available by selecting "Query" in the menu bar (the area marked "5" in Figure 2)
A query screen is provided, with options for selecting, filtering or defining all major categories of data. After selecting the appropriate criteria, the user should scroll to the bottom of the page and check/uncheck the columns to be displayed. After clicking "Search", located at both the top and bottom of the page, the desired report is presented.
The data can be viewed or printed. By using the standard copy/paste functions, the data can also be copied and pasted into an Excel worksheet for further manipulation and analysis, preparation of charts etc.
Further queries can be prepared by clicking the "Clear All" button, located at both the top and bottom of the page, before the user then proceeds to select new criteria for a new search. |
