#### **Sample Output**

The image below illustrates a sample output of the *Search* report. Only the records with the *search* string in any text field of a memorial record are included in the report. Note the following regarding the output.

- Records are initially sorted by *Individual n*ame. Clicking on the column heading containing up/down triangles will sort the selected column. The initial sort will be in ascending order. Clicking the column heading a second time will change the sort to descending order. Clicking the column heading a third time will return the column to the original order.
- The *Field Name* column contains the database table field containing the search value. The sample output illustrates a search for *Smith*.
- Note that some records include Smith as the Maiden Name (i.e., Adams, Betty Morgan *Smith*), some as the First Name <span style="font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Oxygen, Ubuntu, Roboto, Cantarell, 'Fira Sans', 'Droid Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400;">(i.e., Barry, *Smith* Barlow) </span>and some as part of the Last Name (i.e., Cline*smith*, Alice).
