The Records, Reports and Labels grids can be filtered in many ways.  Each method is explained below or a link to a method is displayed.

 

Note: Filtering on any text with an apostrophe/single quote marker will not work and will cause an error - e.g. A Hard Day's Night.

 

The screen shows below demonstrate some simple filtering options. Watch a Filtering Tutorial Video

 

Column Header Filtering - Records, Reports and Labels

 

 

Pop Up Menu Filtering - Records Only

 

The Records grid can be filtered by artist by right-clicking on the grid.  The artist the cursor is on when clicked will appear in the pop up menu with a filter option.  If the A and B Side artists are different then both artists will appear in the pop up menu with a filtering option.

 

 

Custom Filters

 

There are two filter dialogs:

 

The Simple Custom Filter allows for one or two criteria on a single column at a time.

The Filter Builder allows for multiple settings and groupings.
