ELEMENTS OF LOTUS NOTES


Using type-ahead
The type-ahead feature finds word matches for you based on the first few letters you type.

You can use the type-ahead feature in many dialog boxes and in views.

In dialog boxes


In a view

You can use the type-ahead feature in a view to quickly find a particular document or category. In a view, this feature opens a "Starts with" dialog box. To search a view using type-ahead, first sort the view the way you want to search (by name, or subject for example). The search text must match the way the view is sorted. For instance, in a view sorted by "last, first name," you must start typing the last name, not the first name.

Tip: Click anywhere inside the view to make sure the view contains the focus, and then start typing.
