Only those letters or symbols making up a logical entry will be available. Do not
forget to enter a space for terms made up of more than one word, such as Lorem Ipsum. The entries can be entered without special characters (diacritics).
A search of the most relevant terms ensues as soon as letters are entered, so it is
not necessary to enter the entire entry name.
In addition to the text line
A
, the number of matching entries is shown in the
function key
B
.
The numbers 1-99 indicate the quantity of matching entries that were found. If
even more entries were found, ** is indicated instead of a number. If less than 6
entries were found, a list of the found entries opens automatically.
