> ## Limited Field Search

> You can perform a quick search of several frequently used fields in the Subject table to create a selection of subjects for the Subject List form.

> To perform a limited field search

> 1. Select Subjects > Limited Field Search. (You can also select Limited Field Search on the bottom of the Subject List form.)
> 2. On the right side of the form, select one of two options:
> - "Current List" to limit the search to the current subject list.
> - "Entire Database" to search the maximum number of subjects you have access to.
> 3. Select any or all of the four field names on the left side of the form (First Name, Last Name, Primary Provider, Primary ID).
> 4. Enter a text string you want to search for in the text box.
> 5. Click OK and the Subject List form displays all subject records meeting the criteria you have chosen.
> Note: You can use the "@" character as a wildcard in any AudBase search. You can also search for embedded text (a portion of the text within a word) either by selecting the "Check for embedded text" option and entering the character string, or by placing the wildcard character at both ends of the string you are searching for.
