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 |

Variable and Global Lists tab field descriptions
The Variables/Global List tab describes local variables and global variables used by the Object.
Note Global variables are built and stored in memory.
The field descriptions for the Variable/Global List tab are:
| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
|
Local variables local.variables |
Enter a list of local variables that can be used in Processes. Local variables are defined in the application. Local variables are assigned to the Object you are creating and are available to all Processes and States associated with the Object. Local variables are not available to other Objects. |
|
Global lists global.lists |
Global lists, once created, are available to all Processes. Global lists can be built on login, if they are listed in the Startup list. Global lists are available every time you access the Object. |
