Setting Search Options for a My webMethods Page

For each My webMethods page that has a search panel, you can define search options that apply specifically to that page. These search options can include:

The search panel tab (for example, Keyword or Advanced) you want My webMethods to display by default when you initially access the My webMethods page

Whether you want My webMethods to automatically execute a search when you initially access the My webMethods page, and if so, the saved search you want My webMethods to execute

The maximum number of search results that you want My webMethods to retrieve before stopping execution of a search

3. To define the search panel tab you want My webMethods to display when you initially access the My webMethods page, use the Search Tab field. Select one of the following:

Selection...	Description
Keyword	My webMethods displays the Keyword tab.
Basic	My webMethods displays the Basic tab.
Advanced	My webMethods displays the Advanced tab.
Saved	My webMethods displays the Saved tab.
Saved - Details	My webMethods displays the Saved tab with the fields that show the details about the saved search criteria displayed.

4. To select a saved search to load, and optionally execute, use the Selected Saved Search field and the Run selected saved search when window is displayed check box:

a. Use the Selected Saved Search field to identify a saved search you want loaded when you initially access the My webMethods page.

If you do not select the Run selected saved search when window is displayed check box, which is described in the step below, My webMethods does not automatically execute the search when you access the My webMethods page; it will execute the search when you click Search. If you set the Search Tab field to Saved or Saved - Details, when you initially access this My webMethods page, My webMethods displays the saved search that you select on this tab.

If you do not select a saved search in the Selected Saved Search field, My webMethods will not load nor execute a search when you initially access the page.

b. If you want My webMethods to execute the saved search that you selected in the Selected Saved Search field, select the Run selected saved search when window is displayed check box. When you select this check box, My webMethods automatically executes the selected saved search when you access the My webMethods page and displays its results, regardless of your setting in the Search Tab field.

5. To define the maximum number of search results that you want My webMethods to retrieve before it stops execution of a search, use the Max Results field or No Maximum check box.

To define a maximum number of search results	Type a number in the Max Results field. Use Max Results if you are only interested in the most recent information. By setting a limit, your searches will run more quickly and you will receive your search results faster.
If you want to always view all search results	Select the No Maximum check box. When you select the No Maximum check box, your searches can potentially be long running, and you might have to wait before My webMethods displays your search results.
