To search for a particular case:
- If you know the case number, enter it in the search box at the top-right of every screen.
- Otherwise, enter your search terms in the box.
- For more search options, just click the "search" button in the top-right corner for a search form.
To search for all cases matching a particular pattern (for example, "all open bugs assigned to Joe Tester,") you need to set up a filter.
If you are using Firefox, you can integrate FogBugz search right into your browser.
Note on Full-Text Search
To implement full-text search, FogBugz relies on the underlying database. If you are using Microsoft Access (Jet) as the database, FogBugz will only be able to search the text of the title of the case.
The syntax of the search phrase depends on the database you are using. To learn about the syntax you can use for searching, simply click Search and FogBugz will show you instructions that are correct for your database.
