Search Feature

[pilotbum]

I am trying to search for a flight I did to a partiuclar airport but cannot find any feature to accomplish such a search. Can this be done? I assume this is one of the features of an electronic logbook. All I can find is a search by date function; if I knew the date, I would not need to search for it!

Hello,

On the bottom of the spreadsheet area is a toolbar, click the binocular icon.

Hello,

That's great. Except, it's not working for me. I'm looking for a flight to a particular airport that is in the route of flight that according to the route browser is there but LogBook pro cannot find. I have tried every option in the 'match' section to the left and still not luck.

Try bracketing your search term with asterisks such as *DFW* where the * represents a wild card (any characters, etc.). See attached.

I must be missing something here. I'm trying to search for terms in the REMARKS column. I can't find anything using the Find function. Please help!

Shouldn't I be able to select "Remarks" as the column to search, type, *Shane* in the Find box, select Partial Match or Equal and have it find every entry that there is any mention of Shane in the remarks? I can do it with a entry in plain view and it still says, "No Match Found."

Ugh!

Hello,

Please refer to this KB article.

Neal,
I'm having the same issue. I have used the little binoculars at the bottom, per the referenced kb article, and I still get the message "No Match Found". I even used the asterisks per the recommendation.
Any other suggestions?

Ok, I figured it out. There is a step not mentioned in the kb article. If I want to search in the remarks column, I have to first click on an entry in the remarks column itself (not any other column). Then I can go to the binoculars at the bottom, enter the search term (making sure to use the asterisks at both ends), choose partial, and choose up or down depending on which row you selected.
The kb article should be updated to reflect this step.
