Configuring the EDS Lookup Window

There are several ways to filter information on the External Data Sources window so you can easily manage lists that contain many entries.

NOTE: The Filter feature is only visible on the External Data Sources window if the option shown below is set to true in the webcontrolsettings.xml file, located in the SmartSolve Root Folder\Settings\folder. This setting is set to false by default.
