You can search the contents of you projects based on any combination of the following criteria:
To start a search, do one of the following:
The search results window lists all of the files that match your criteria. If you searched for specific text, each result expands to show each line in the file where the text appeared. Double-click any result to open it in the Source Editor.
The Search Results window is cleared every time you close it or run a new search. You cannot save search results, but you can save search criteria to run the same search again.
To save search criteria:
The IDE saves the criteria on each tab of the Find dialog box separately. If you entered several types of criteria, you have to save and reload the criteria in each tab separately.
To reuse search criteria:
Note that the IDE only saves the search criteria and not the location on which you ran the search. The IDE runs the search on whichever node is selected in the IDE.
