The Search tab gives you the ability to search for files by status or filename in a selected folder.
The standard toolbar for Search contains the following commands:
Search In – Select a folder in the Folder Tree to begin a search. The selected folder will appear in the Search box. Select a different folder and the contents of the Search In box will be updated as well as the new search results.
Search By – Select the type of search –either a search by a specific status or a filename. When a new status is selected, a new search is automatically performed. The default is Don’t Search and no searches will occur when this is selected.
Username – A list of all Vault Standard users for the current repository will appear when the Checked out by status has been selected. Select the user to search on.
Recursive – When checked, the search from the selected folder will be recursive to include all subfolders. The default is unchecked
Lock onto this folder – This allows you to keep the search results on a locked folder as you select other folders in the tree. Normally, selecting other folders will update the search results automatically. If you want the search results for a folder to remain in the list regardless of which folder is currently selected, check this box. The default is unchecked.
Background updates – Check this to continue to update the search on the selected folder even as you use the Pending Change Set tab or the Messages tab. To notify you of a change, the Status Search on the tab will become bold. Lock onto this folder must be checked in order to use this option. The default is unchecked.
Filename – When Filename Search is selected, this input field becomes active. Enter the filename you wish to search on, and use ‘*’ for wildcards. Press Enter to start the search.

Item – The name of a file matching the search criteria.
Repository Path – The full path in the repository that corresponds to the item.
