Creating a Custom Filter

The Custom AutoFilter dialog, accessible from the Select Records dialog or the Record Picker data entry control, allows you to create a custom filter for a specific column. You can create a filter that searches on up to two specific criteria.

To access the Custom AutoFilter dialog, select a column header and click . From the Filter button menu, select (Custom).

A custom filter is an SQL query that BarTender applies to the data in the record set. The record set is then updated to display only those records that meet the filter criteria. This can save you time if the record set is quite large or you are looking for specific records to print.

To filter the record set further, you can add additional filter conditions separated by Boolean operators. A Boolean operator defines how multiple filter statements relate to one another.
