When certain tables or forms are selected, you can use the Select Filter window to apply a filter to limit the records shown.

1. Select Filter > Select Filter. The Select Filter window opens.

2. For Filter, select the filter to apply from all those in the enabled Filter files for the active table or form.

Remarks is a display-only field that shows the description entered for the selected filter. Under Filter conditions, display-only text provides the English equivalent of each criteria on a separate line.

If parameter values must be supplied, appropriate controls for making selections are available. If ordering criteria are specified, they appear after the selection criteria.

3. If the filter requires you to enter parameters, supply the desired values. For more information, see Supplying Parameter Values at Run Time.

4. When finished, click OK.

If records match the criteria for the applied filter, they are shown in the table. If no records match the criteria for the applied filter, the No Matches window opens by default. For more information, see Responding to the No Matches Window.
