How can I view the index / contents of a field?

The Problem

You want to perform a find for something but are not sure how it was entered previously.

The Solution

You can get a listing of all the items which have ever been entered into a field by clicking two keys on your keyboard.

You do not have to be in the Find mode to perform this function. In any screen:

  1. Click in the field of which you want to view the index.
  2. In Windows hold the Control key, in Macintosh hold the Command key while clicking once on the “i” key.An index of all previous used listings appears in alphabetical order.
  3. Click the word you want to enter.
  4. Click the Paste button.

One of the benefits of using the index is for items which you are not sure of the spelling. Or if you want to perform a find for something but are not sure how it was entered previously.
