Clicking the Add button or pressing the ENTER key searches the list of users for names that BEGIN with the string of characters typed in the Type Names text box. If any names are found, they are displayed in the Choose Names list. Clicking the Search button or pressing COMMAND+S searches the list of users for names that CONTAIN the string of characters typed in the Type Names text box. If any names are found, they are displayed in the Choose Names list. In Mail version 3.X00, the Search button has been renamed to "Find Name" and the key equivalent is COMMAND+F. Find Name searches for names in the same manner as the Search button. MORE INFORMATION ================ For example, suppose you type "Ma" (without the quotation marks) in the Type Names text box and the list of users contains the following four names: Bob Mack Chis Kinman Martha Jones Mary Smith 1. If you click the Add button, the names that BEGIN with "Ma" are displayed in the Choose Names list. In this example, the following names are displayed: Mary Smith Martha Jones 2. If you click the Search (or Find Names) button, the names that CONTAIN the string of characters "Ma" are displayed in the Choose Names list. In this example, the following names are displayed: Bob Mack Chis Kinman Martha Jones Mary Smith Additional query words: 3.00 3.10 ====================================================================== Keywords : Technology : kbMailSearch kbZNotKeyword3 kbMailATN300 kbMailATN310 Version : WINDOWS:3.0,3.1 ============================================================================= THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THE MICROSOFT KNOWLEDGE BASE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.
