Filtering the Address Book
The entries in an address book group can be filtered to display only the entries (participants or groups) that
meet criteria that you specify and hides entries that you do not want displayed. It enables you to select and
work with a subset of Address Book entries.
You can filter by more than one column, by adding additional filters (columns).
The filter applies to the displayed group. If All Participants option is selected, it applies to all the listed
participants.
Filtering can be done using:
● A predefined pattern
● Customized pattern
When you use the Find dialog box to search filtered data, only the data that is displayed is searched; data
that is not displayed is not searched. To search all the data, clear all filters.
