Searching by spreadsheet group (level)

You can locate an item in the spreadsheet or in assembly takeoff when you search for items that match a spreadsheet sort level.

  1. Click image\find.gif on the toolbar to open the Find/Go To window.

    Note: This command is available for only the spreadsheet or assembly takeoff. If you have a list open, this command becomes the Search/Close Search command.

    The spreadsheet level fields at the top of the window correspond to the spreadsheet sequence in effect when you start Find/Go To. For example, if the spreadsheet is in the Phase/Item sequence when you start Find/Go To, two fields appear at the top of the window: Phase and Item. Likewise, if the spreadsheet is in the Assembly sequence when you start Find/Go To, one field appears in the window: Assembly.

  2. Specify one or more spreadsheet levels to search for.

    Tip: Click The List (ellipsis) button to select levels from a list.

  3. To start searching the spreadsheet from the beginning, select the Start from beginning checkbox.

    To start searching the spreadsheet from the current cursor position forward, clear the Start from beginning checkbox.

  4. Click [Go] to start the search.

Tip: If you are searching for a secondary spreadsheet level, you can press F3 from the spreadsheet to find the next item that matches the current search criteria.
