Filter

This dialog box is displayed when you right-click an object type node (such as Tables) in the Connections navigator and select Apply Filter. Use this box to limit the number of objects of that type that are displayed, according to one or more filter criteria that you specify. For each criterion, specify the following:

• Criterion name (for example, OBJECT_NAME for a table)

• Operator (for example, LIKE)

• Value for comparison (for example EM%)

• Case-sensitive option for character data comparison

For example, to display only tables with names that start with EM, specify: OBJECT_NAME LIKE EM% (with the percent sign as a wildcard character)

To add another filter criterion, click the Add (+) icon; to delete a criterion, select it and click the Delete (X) icon; to move a criterion up or down in the list, select it and use the arrow icons.

To apply the filter criteria to the Connections navigator display, click OK.

To remove the effects of applying a filter, right-click the object type node in the Connections navigator display and select Clear Filter.
