Prefix

Effect on Search Line

/

Include non-active students. Normal searches are restricted to the actively enrolled student body of the school. However, especially when transferring students in from another school, you may sometimes wish to locate students who are no longer or not yet active. Use this prefix to search across ALL students (such as, active and inactive). Note that this may be placed AFTER (not before) a "+" or "&" prefix.

&

Search within results. For example, to find all students transferred in after 4/10/2006, search first for "transferred-in", then search for "&/ExitDate>4/10/2006". Note that the "&" must come BEFORE any "/" prefix.

Note: When the Advanced checkbox is selected, this comparator does not function. You can use the Within button in its place. For more information, see Search Results/Current Student Selection.

+

Add results of new search. For example, to find all tenth graders and all ninth graders with the field "InstrLevel" set to "Advanced" you might search for "Grade_Level=9" and then "&InstrLevel=Advanced", and finally for "+Grade_Level=10". Note that the "+" must come BEFORE any "/" prefix.

Note: When the Advanced checkbox is selected, this comparator does not function. You can use the Add button in its place. For more information, see Search Results/Current Student Selection.
