Search Profile Contents Line by Line

The following describes each of the entries in a search profile, line by line as they appear in the search profile, and explains where OL Connect Search obtains the value associated with that entry. See Set User Options for more complete descriptions of any of the options you set through the User Options dialog box.

Note: With the exception of the ReadOnly and ShrinkToFit entries, all entries are either set through the OL Connect Search user interface, or maintained automatically by OL Connect Search. Unless you need to edit one of these two entries (as is the case in a network installation where you edit the ReadOnly entry to prevent database refreshes and rebuilds), or for some reason need to edit the DatabaseDirectory entry (for example, to edit the parameters of a connection string), it is recommended that you make modifications through the OL Connect Search user interface. For more information about network installations, see Database Considerations in a Network Installation.

Entry	Description
[General]	Introduces the General section of the search profile.
ReadOnly	Indicates whether the search profile permits rebuilds and refreshes of its search database. A value of 0 indicates the search profile permits rebuilds and refreshes of the database; a value of 1 indicates it does not. When it is set to 1, the Set search folders, Refresh database, and Rebuild database menu items, as well as the User Options Database options are unavailable in the OL Connect Search user interface. Set automatically by OL Connect Search, or by a user editing the search profile directly to create a search profile that does not permit rebuilds or refreshes of its databases (for example, in a network installation).
AutoDateFilt	Defines the default date filter for this search profile. Set in User Options, Program startup options, Filter date.
AutoForm	Defines the default document to display when OL Connect Search loads the search profile. Set in User Options, Program startup options, Select document.
AutoRefresh	Defines the database refresh option. Set in User Options, Database options, Refresh databases.
LastRun	Records the date OL Connect Search last used this search profile. Automatically maintained by OL Connect Search.
CaseSensitiveSearch	Defines the case sensitivity of the search. Set in User Options, Search options, Search is case sensitive.
MultiPage	Specifies the number of subsequent pages to include with a search result. Set in User Options, Search options, Multi-page mode.
AutoOpen	Specifies whether to automatically open PDFs you create in OL Connect Search. Set in User Options, Search options, Open PDF after creation.
PrinterName	Specifies the printer to use with this search profile. Set in User Options, Printing options, Printer to use.
ShrinkToFit	Instructs Adobe Acrobat Reader to shrink any oversize pages that you print, to fit the paper size defined in the printer properties. Never adjusted.
LastUpdate	Records the date and time OL Connect Search last refreshed or rebuilt the search database associated with this search profile. Automatically maintained by OL Connect Search.
DefaultFieldSize	Specifies the default field size to use in the search database for each index term. Set in User Options, Database options, Default field size option.
Check Subdirectories	Determines whether OL Connect Search includes any subfolders it finds in the archive folders, in the search database. Set when you define the archive folders.
DefaultOperator	Determines the operator that appears by default in each search criterion. (0=starts with, 1=ends with, 2=is, 3=is not, 4=contains, 5=does not contain, 6=is greater than, 7=is less than). Automatically set by OL Connect Search to the last operator used in a query.
Ignore File Date=0	Determines whether OL Connect Search considers the date of individual PDI files when it refreshes the search database. Set when you define the archive folders.
MDBIndexes=0	Applies only to Access databases, and indicates whether the database uses Access indexes. Set in User Options, Database options, Build field indexes.
DatabaseDirectory	Specifies the path of the folder that contains the search database in the case of a Microsoft Access database, or the connection string for the database in the case of an SQL Server database. The connection string includes the user name and password to use when connecting to the database. The password is encrypted before being saved in the search profile. OL Connect Search prompts you for path to an Access database when you create a new search profile, or attempt to load a search profile that does not yet have a database associated with it. In the case of SQL Server databases, it prompts you for the information from which to construct a connection string when you create a new search profile. In this case, the user name and password for the connection string are set in User Options, Search options, Database access for new profiles.
PathListCount	Records the number of archive folders included in the search database. Automatically set by OL Connect Search when you create the search database associated with this search profile and define the list of archive folders you want the database to include.
DatabaseTimeout	Specifies the number of seconds OL Connect Search waits for a response from the database before reporting a connection failure. Set in User Options, Database options, Connection timeout.
[PathList]	Introduces the list of paths for the archive folders included in this search database.
Path1	Specifies a path of one of the archive folders included in the search database. Automatically set by OL Connect Search when you create the search database associated with this search profile and define the list of archive folders you want the database to include.
