You can view one set of search results at a time, for each server you are connected to through the integration hierarchy. The results of the last search you entered while you
were in the Windows Explorer or e-mail application session are shown. When you close the session by closing the window, the search results list is cleared.
Perform these steps to search a content server:
1. With any item in a server hierarchy selected, right-click and choose Search... in the
context menu, or
click the Search icon in the toolbar Figure 7–3
.
Figure 7–3 Search Icon
The Content Query Capture dialog is displayed see Section A.17, Content Query
Capture Dialog . This screen is basically the standard Oracle Content Server
search form.
2. Enter the search criteria in the form and click Search.
The results are displayed in a node called Search Results under the associated content server in the integration hierarchy.
7.14 Setting Metadata To Be Remembered for Form-Based Check-ins
For each server connection, you can set the metadata that will be remembered each time you check in a content item using a content check-in form. As a result, at each
check-in, the metadata values you used at the last check-in will pre-populate the metadata fields configured to be remembered assuming these values are available. If
you enter new values in the metadata fields, the new ones will be used for the file and also remembered for the next form-based check-in.
You can set the metadata fields to be remembered for a server when you initially create a connection to that server see
Section 7.7, Adding a Content Server Connection , or
you can modify this setting later:
1. In Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, open the Oracle UCM menu or
ribbon, and choose Edit Server List.... In Microsoft Outlook, open the Oracle UCM menu, then choose Email
Integration Settings...
, and then Edit Server List. In Lotus Notes, open the Actions menu, then choose Email Integration Settings...,
and then Edit Server List. Caution:
The items in the search results list are the actual files not a copy or pointer of some sort. If you delete a file from the search
results list, you are removing the actual content item from the content server. Be careful when working with items in the search results list

7.15 Setting the Authentication Method

administrator and there is generally no need to change the default on your client computer unless specifically asked to do so.
