Sort The Database Records - NUANCE OMNIFORM 2 REFERENCE FOR MACINTOSH Reference

2 Click OK.
3 OmniForm searches the database and retrieves the two records
that match the search criteria. This is called the found set.
Status text just below the toolbar shows the search results
information.
You can narrow a search further by searching a found set for
more specific information. For example, you might want to find
only editing jobs you had done for Franich & Halsey. You
would enter the appropriate information in the Search dialog
box and select Only Search Current Record Set. This is useful
when you have a large found set.
4 Click the Clear Search button below the toolbar to return to the
full database set.

Sort the Database Records

You may need to sort your database records in some logical order, for
example, alphabetically by customer name as you will in this exercise.
To sort records:
1 Choose Sort... in the Records menu.
The Sort dialog box appears.
• Select Customer in the Field Name pop-up menu.
• Select Ascending Order (A-Z; descending order would be Z-A).
2 Click OK.
OmniForm examines the Customer field in each record and
sorts the records alphabetically: the two Franich & Halsey
records are numbers 1 and 2, The Borne Corporation is number
3, and Zimmer DTP is number 4.
