Using only part of a field for comparison (ranging)

Sometimes you will want to use only part of a field for comparison. You can do this by specifying the range of characters to be compared in a selection criterion.

1.

Place the cursor in the Field or Value field of the Criterion Definition window.

2.

Select Field functions > Change ranging.

The Field Range window is displayed. (If your field is larger than 99 characters, this window was displayed automatically when you selected the field.)

3.

See Printing only part of a field (ranging) for details on entering ranging information for a field.
