FIND SCREEN

When you have been using Weight a'Minute for a while, you will have created quite a few records. You will now begin to appreciate the Find facility in Weight a'Minute, which lets you search for virtually anything from within the program.

The Find screen can be accessed from most of the other screens in Weight a'Minute.

The searches below can be performed from the Find screen.

See below for what happens when records are found, or if no records match your request.

Find Dates When You Have Done Either Of The Three Types Of Exercise

Click either of the three buttons to find dates when you have done exercise.

See below for what happens when records are found, or if no records match your request.

Find Omit

This button finds records that were omitted from the last search that you performed. This may sound complicated but is actually quite a useful tool. It enables you to find the exact opposite of what you just found. For example, let us say that you have just found all those dates on which you have eaten healthily. Because you have been eating well while you have been using Weight a'Minute, those days when you have eaten healthily amounted to 20 records out of the total number of 25. (In the jargon of Weight a'Minute, that means the current found set is 20 and the total is 25.) Clicking the Find Omit button will find the other 5 records, ie those dates when you did not eat healthily.

See below for what happens when records are found, or if no records match your request.

Find Results

If only one record matches what you were looking for, the record will be shown to you on the Details screen.

If more than one record matches what you were looking for, the records will be listed for you on the Analysis screen.

If no records are found, you will see something similar to the following dialog box.

Dialog, No Records Found

Click "Yes" to go back to the Find screen and choose some different find criteria.

Click "Cancel" to stop finding and go back to wherever you were before you went to the Find screen.
