Step 11: Call the Response SLT wizard

The next step is to create a wizard panel to call the existing out-of-box Response Wizard for those users who answered that they did want to add a Response SLT.

Because this wizard panel only performs the background task of calling another wizard, there is no screen to show the end user. Thus there is no task requiring the use of Forms Designer in this step.

Task: Create a wizard to call a Response SLT

For this task, you will create a wizard that will call the existing out-of-box Response SLT wizard.

To create a wizard to call the existing out-of-box Response SLT wizard, follow these steps:

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.

Search for	Operator	Example
Two or more words in the same topic	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`
