Saving Queries (Server)

You can use the Save Query button on either the General Search or Cited Reference Search page to save queries so that you can run them again in other sessions against the same or different data. Queries saved on the server include only your search parameters and are run against whatever database and time span selections you have established in the current session. Since all queries are saved on the server, you will need to select a user name and password to distinguish your saved queries from those of other users. Remember the user name and password you select, because they will be required to retrieve the queries you save. To save a query: Click Save Query on either the General Search or Cited Reference Search page. The Save Search Query page displays. Enter a user name and password. The user name must be unique. You will receive an error if you enter a name that has already been selected by another user. Click Continue. The bottom half of the page will display a data entry field. Enter a unique name for the search query. Click Continue to save the query. Click either the General Search or Cited Ref Search button in the toolbar to return to the Search page and execute your query. To delete a query: Delete the saved query files from the hard drive.
