Database Menu

 

The X-Pro database is developed on Microsoft Access and allows you to store data records related to images and documents of any type.
You can create up to 10 distinct databases having record templates with custom fields.
Each record has 13 information fields, a note field and the capacity to store an unlimited number of images with related documents.

Use can be protected by a used-defined password, which will be requested  when first operating the database.

 

access protection

If the database is to be used by authorized personnel only, it is necessary to activate the access password.
 

Tools Menu

Advanced Search
If in the Search dialog the Advanced switch is selected, by pressing the Search button the Search: Type Command dialog will be displayed.


Automatically a string is shown which, if confirmed with OK, performs a search for the records containing the text options specified in the fields of the database record.

Analysis of the Search Command
With X1 , X2 you indicate the first and the second fields of the database record.
With: ((X1 >= 'Smith') and (X1 < 'Smithzzzzz')) all the words starting with "Smith" are searched for in the first field.
With: ((X2 >= 'London') and (X2 < 'Londonzzzzz')) all the words starting with "London" are searched for in the second field.
As the "and" operator has been used, the two commands will be joined to extract only the records containing the two words "Smith" in the first field and "London" in the second field. If "and" is substituted by "or", only the records containing the two words "Smith" in the first field or "London" in the second field will be extracted.
