    The default action may be, for example:

- transferring the item currently selected in the list to the other list, when two lists are displayed side by side;

- retrieving an object selected in a prompt;

- etc.

  2. Move the mouse pointer on the list: a thick red line appears between two objects in the list.
  3. Click with the right button when the line is on the required location: the object is moved to this location.


Filters

For certain objects, an entry field located above the list can be used to enter a filter. This filter is a selection criterion which limits the list's displayed contents.


Alphanumeric filter

Alphanumeric filters may consist of figures, letters and joker characters such as "?" and "*".


Example:

    • The ITEM? filter displays all the objects whose name fits in five characters and starts with "ITEM".

    • The ITEM* filter displays all the objects starting with "ITEM".

    • The *10 filter displays all the objects ending with "10".

    • The *CODE* filter displays all the objects containing the word "CODE".

Numeric filter

You can set a numeric filter by defining a value range in the format: minimum value, dash, maximum value.


Example:

    • The filter 10-30 lists all values between 10 and 30.

    • The filter -50 lists all values lower than or equal to 50.

    • The filter 30- lists all values greater than or equal to 30.

    • The filter 50 lists the value 50.

Note: Numeric filters are currently only used for error messages.

Clicking the right mouse button in the entry field displays a list of the most recently-used filters.
