Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
|
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

RAD function: cursor.field.contents
A RAD function that returns a string containing the contents of the field where the cursor was last positioned when the user performed an action such as clicking Fill or Find, or double-clicking on a QBE list. If the action opens a new form, cursor.field.contents will return the focus on the pop-up form.
Note The cursor.field.contents function does not support record lists in the Web client. For example, when you double-click a row in a record list from the Web client, no value is returned by the cursor.field.contents function.
Function
cursor.field.contents
Format
cursor.field.contents()
Factors
If the field is an array, the content of the current element is returned.
Example
cursor.field.contents() returns a101a01.
