Search by type
Search by type
I apologize if this question is basic (or answered somewhere; I looked, but could not find anything). I would like to limit my search by reference type. For example, I would like to search my database but only the books in the database. The search function allows you to focus on a field, but the "type" (not named, but I don't know what else to call it) is a dropdown menu, not a field, and I don't see any way to limit the search using it. I would think it would be on the drop down menu that is after "Search" but that only has "the entire library" or "hits list". Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Re: Search by type
Refs -> Find (Command-F) offers far more complex searches (including for Type) than you can perform with the simple live search option.
And of course you can create your own SQL searches (see the thread immediately below this one in the list).

Re: Search by type
Thanks! That did the trick. I didn't see it was on the "text" drop down menu. I thought I had checked all of the drop down menus, but I guess not.
