Searching the Directory
• a character space, a period, or a space and a period together
• one or more characters
For example, specifying the string “P.Ande” could return
• Paul Andes
• Pam Anderson
• Paolo Andellini
Similarly, if the search string specifies the following items in the following
order, the standard search executes a search for a first name followed by a last
initial:
• more than one character
• a character space, a period, or a space and a period together
• a single character
For example, specifying the string “M.Pai” could return
• Michelle Painter
•Mai Pai
•Marty Pain
Approximate (or “sounds-like”) and substring searches are not performed in
this case.
Searching for Phone Numbers
Standard search automatically searches for a phone number if the value entered
consists only of numeric characters. This type of search is an “ends with”
search. That is, the directory server searches for any phone numbers that end
with the specified string. For example, entering the sting “123” results in the
display of all phone number that end with 123. A single hyphen is permitted in
the search string if at least one digit precedes it.
