3.1.5 Searching for Folders and Files

The selected files (QuickForms, in the example above) contained in the local directory will be imported into your Workflow Application project.

Systemwalker Runbook Automation allows you to search for folders and files in your workspace or in a specific Workflow Application project. Search is based on the text search method. This method specifies that the files you are searching for contain certain text strings in the title, contents, or properties. You can also specify where to look for folders and files and thus limit the range of your search.

To search for specific folders and files:

  1. Select Search from the Toolbar().

    The Search dialog is displayed.

  2. Type in a search string or select a string from the drop-down list.

    The Search dialog shows the string you have selected. You can search by the following criteria:

    • All or part of a folder's or file's name

    • A word or phrase in the name

  3. If you want Interstage BPM Studio to distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters, select the Case sensitive check box.

  4. Select one of the Scope check boxes to narrow the scope of search. You have the following options:

    • Workspace: Sets the search range to the file system folder where your work is stored.

    • Selected resources: Sets the search range to the Workflow Application project you have selected in the Navigator view.

    • Enclosing projects: Sets the search range to the selected project, including the resources that are opened in the Resource editor.

  5. Click Search to start searching for the specified folders or files.

    The search results are displayed in the Search view. The following example shows the search results for the term "simulation" in your workspace:

From the results list, you can take further actions on the files you find, such as viewing or editing the files. To do this, double-click the files to open them in the editor window above the Search view.
