Text Search Instructions

The calendar database can be searched for events matching specific text.

Search text: The selected fields (see below) of each event will be searched. The search is case insensitive.

Two wildcard characters can be used:

Underscore characters (_) in the search text will match any single character.
E.g.: '_e_r' matches 'beer', 'dear', 'heir'.
Ampersand characters (&) in the search text will match any number of characters.
E.g.: 'de&r' matches 'December', 'dear', 'developer'.

A blank search text field, or just an ampersand, will match any text and therefore all events.

Event fields: The selected fields will be searched only.

Event category: Events in the selected category will be searched only.

Occurring between: The start and end date are both optional. A blank start date means: one year from now in the past and a blank end date means: one year from now in the future.

The result after clicking the "search" button, will be presented in chronological order.

In the top is shown the search criterias.

The search result can be printed.
