SASSLO General Search Tips

Match Case

By default, the search will not be case sensitive. This option makes the search case sensitive.

Match Whole Word Only

By default, the search will not be restricted to matching whole words only. This option allows the search to be restricted to whole words only. This is useful for searching for 'a', or 'A' without finding all words including 'a'.

Regular Expression

Regular expressions allow more complex search in a single operation. For example,

".*image.*" searchs all records including "image".

".*anti[-]?virus.*" searchs all records including "antivirus" or "anti-virus".
