Search for Lists - Results

When you submit your search criteria by clicking the GO button, all lists that meet your criteria appear on the Search Results page. The number of lists found appears in the page title. The number of lists appearing on one page is shown in the # per Page field below the title. To change this number for the current results, clear the field, type a different number, and press the TAB key.

Use the scroll bar or the DOWN ARROW key to move to the bottom of the page. Click the > link or Page Down button to view the next page; click the < link or Page Up button to view the previous page. To go to the end of the list, click the >> link; to return to the beginning of the list, click the << link. Links are unavailable if there are no additional pages or if you’re at the end or beginning of the list.

The Search Results page shows the following information about each list found: the type of list (Criteria Based, Personal, etc.), the list name, description, query, the user name of the staff member who created the list or current owner, the number of records in the list, how many seconds it took the list to execute, the created, modified, executed and expiration dates, the purpose of the list, whether the list is a draft or published template, and if the list is being used in a report. When a list is created using the List processor, it's identified as Criteria Based; when it's created as a result of a People search, it's identified as Personal.

Click a column heading to re-sort the search results by information in that column. Click the list name link to go to the List Record page, which contains all of the information about the list and the query criteria.

You can customize the display of the Search Results page by selecting columns to Hide or Show. A plus sign (+) appears when you place the mouse cursor above a column heading, if the column can be hidden. Right click and select the column name in the pop-up to hide the column. To display the column, right click in a column heading and a list of hidden columns will appear. Select the check box for the column names that you would like to display and click the Show button. Generally, the check box, number and ID columns can not be hidden. Your settings for hidden columns will remain until you change them.

The Actions pane at the left of the page displays all available actions for lists in the Search Results, however, some actions are unavailable until at least one list is selected by clicking in the check box next to it. Actions include such things as execute, analyze lists, copy one list, merge lists, view lists, split lists, check address, add mail, export list, print labels, and delete lists.
