Problem

Symptoms: The customer was trying to perform a Find on a name in Long Display in List Files. If the Find was for an a, then the program would list files that contained an a in the descriptive name, type, or filename. When the user performed a search for -a, files not containing an a in either the descriptive name, type, or filename were listed. Solutions: The Find feature looks at the descriptive name as Field 1, type as Field 2, and filename as Field 3. If the conditions of the Find are matched in the first field, then fields 2 and 3 are not checked. If Field 1 does not match the find, then the program checks Field 2; if it matches, then Field 3 is not checked. Short Display only has one field: filename, where Long Display has 3 fields. When the Find feature is performed, it is treated as a global sort. Status: Working as Designed ***|wad|*** Press Enter on link token.
