Searching Messages - Blackberry RIM 857 Wireless Handheld Installation & User Manual

Searching messages

Use the handheld's search function to locate specific messages. You
can specify and save the terms of several searches and use them at
any time. You can also perform a one-time search. Two default
searches (Inbox and Outbox) are saved on the handheld.
Note
You can also search for messages while in the Messages
and Saved Messages screens.
You do not need to complete all the fields in the Search
Messages screen. The more fields you complete, the more
narrow the search will be.
To perform a search
1. In the Home screen, scroll to the SEARCH MESSAGES icon
and click.
2. The Search Messages screen appears. In the Name, Subject, or
Message fields, type the keywords for which you want to
search.
Note
If you forget an exact spelling, you can search for a name
stored in your Address Book while still in the Search
Messages function. With your cursor in the Name field,
click the trackwheel to view the menu. Scroll to Select
Name and click. In the Address Book screen, select the
name for which you would like to search. Click the
trackwheel to view the menu. Scroll to Use Address and
click. You return to the Search Messages screen with your
selected name in the Name field.
3. In the In field, press the
search for the name that you have entered. Choose from From
field, Any Address Field, To field, Cc field, or Bcc field.
