   I was wondering if there is a possibility to skip the labels in a form, for example on a button, when doing a search.
Regards,
Dominique

	There might be something you can do with the "Property Search" mode, depending on what you try to look for. Having a condition like "[Label] [not contains] {searchexpression}" would do that, however, that will stop searching in objects that don't have a label property (such as program units/triggers/etc) ... or if you only want to search in source code, then you could use Property Search and set a condition to "*ObjectType <> Item" to remove all block items from your search. Anything more complex than that and the search tool probably won't be of much help to you and require FormsAPI Master scripting instead.
