RE: iSeries Navigator woes

Actually on the list of tables, just start pressing the characters of the table and it will go right to them, don't have to call up any filter menu or option :-) Simplicity at its best!

IN MS Studio, you have to call up the filter to show tables according to 'SSA' but I find that this doesn't work so well. Most of the time, I end up just scrolling.

Hmm, sounds like a good lead, but I get lost . . .

I >think< I want to "Customize this view" at the Tables node under

do this

at any level below Schemas.

At Schemas in the Left Pane, I have a Databases tasks = "Select
schemas

to display"

and this does open a window with pretty good filter options . . .
alas

nothing

at a lower level has caught my eye . . .

Databases > Schemas > Tables
Right click Tables or press F11
On the General tab, select the radio button for 'Names that match'.
Under Condition, select 'Starts with'. Under Text, type the letters
that your file names begin with.

I'm on 7.1

As an aside, I'm not really a GUI person. I like that completely
empty green command line very much. Yet even I have managed to learn
quite a few things from reading Rob's posts on iNav, and if I can - anyone can!
:-) I've found a plethora of very cool actions by right clicking
pretty much anything and everything on the screen. I wish there was a
tutorial on this stuff, but in the absence of that, thank you Rob!
