Search in list boxes

There are several ways of sorting the contents of the list box or opening the list box with a specific range of codes.

Here are the possibilities:

  • Sort the list alphanumerically - Click on the column heading. If you click once, the list will be sorted in ascending order. Click once more to sort it in a descending order.
  • Move the cursor to the first occurrence of a code - Click on the heading and start typing the code or name you are looking for. The cursor is placed on the first occurrence of the typed string.
  • Open the list box with a range of codes - In the text box, enter the beginning of the code you are looking for and end with the wildcard *. Click on the Show Valid Choices button or press the TAB key. The list box opens and displays all codes starting with the entered characters. For example, enter 49* and press the TAB key. The list box displays all codes starting with 49.
Note: If you don't find the code you are looking for in this list box, your user rights may be restricted or the system contains linked structures, which limit you access to certain combination of codes. In this case, contact your system administrator.
