Found Sets

What is a Found Set?

When you perform a find, FrameReady searches all records, comparing the search criteria you specified with the data stored inside it.
Those records with data matching the search criteria become the Found Set. These are your search results.
The Found Set is a subset of records being browsed -- because records that did not match were omitted.
FrameReady shows you the number of records in a Found Set and informs you which record is currently displayed, e.g. 7 of 96 Total: 15614

Note: You do not need to choose Show All Records before performing finds. FileMaker Pro always searches all records in the tables you specify unless you have narrowed the existing found set.

Working with a Found Set

You can work with just the records in the Found Set. For example, you can view, edit, calculate summaries for, sort, print, delete, export, or replace data in these records.
The yellow navigation arrows (first record, previous record, next record and last record) operate as normally, except only within the Found Set.
To clear or get rid of a Found Set and go back to seeing all records, click the Find All button.

Cancel

To cancel a find operation before it is finished and leave the previous found set unchanged Press Esc (Windows) or Command + period (Mac).
