Saved searches

You can save a search as a search project, which stores the following information:

• Search criteria
• Parameter values
• Table and subset with which the search was performed
• The database with which the search was performed

Note: Saved search projects from previous versions of GRANTA MI may not load correctly.

To save a search project

1. On the Search tab, in the Search Criteria box, click Save Search.
2. Save the search project file (searchProject.search.gmi). The exact format of the Save dialog and the procedure is dependent on your web browser.

To load a saved search project

Loading a project will overwrite your parameter value settings with those in the project file. It will not overwrite your search options.

1. Click Tools > Load search project at the top of the Search page.
2. Locate the project file (*.search.gmi) and then click Load project file.
3. If the project was created with a different but compatible database, you will be offered the choice of which database to use. To select the database to use, click Choose database or click Load another project.

The search is loaded and automatically run, and the results are displayed.
