Messages page

Select the Messages tab to open the Messages page.

The Messages page has the following options:

• Each column, except Type, maps to a column heading in the Message Window.

• The first row (Error Warning in the LogFlag column) is not editable and cannot be deleted, although you can clear the Show check box.

• Data rows perform an AND operation (filter for messages that meet both criteria).

• Data columns perform an OR operation (filter for messages that meet either criteria).

• Use both AND and OR operations (multiple categories on multiple rows) to set complex filters.

• New Filter icon: Use to add a new row of filter criteria. After setting filtering criteria, the check box is automatically enabled for that row.

• Delete Filter icon: Use to remove a highlighted row of filter criteria.

• Delete All: Use this button to clear all filter criteria from this page.

Set a filter

1. Select the check box of a new row to toggle between Show and Hide.

2. Double-click a category cell to type the filter criteria.

3. Select outside of the cell to set that criteria.

The Messages page also has two shortcut menus. When a category cell is in edit mode, right-click in the cell to display Microsoft® edit commands, such as copy and paste. Right-click outside a category cell to display the following commands:

• Clear Field: Erase the data in a category cell.

• Add: Add another row of filtering criteria.

• Delete: Delete a row of filtering criteria.

Use the Enable/Disable Message Filter icon on the toolbar to toggle on and off the filtering criteria you have set.
