Find 8-7
Figure 8-5 A standard Find slip specifies what to find and where to look
The standard Find slip contains a labeled input line used to specify a search
criterion and several radio buttons used to specify the scope of the search.
The labeled input line has a picker for specifying the kind of search to
perform—a text item or a date. Your application can also implement
specialized searches for other kinds of data; these searches are described
in more detail later in this section. Figure 8-6 illustrates the standard
Look For picker.

Text Searches 8
Text searches are not sensitive to capitalization and only match the beginnings
of words. For example, a search for “man” would find the items “man” and
“Manila,” but not “human.” To specify the text to search for, a user writes on
the input line in the Find slip.
