- About the Corel Photo Browser Database
- =======================================
-
- The visual database was created to help you quickly and conveniently find the
- images you need. Each image included in the Corel Stock Photo Library is entered
- into the database and assigned a thumbnail image, file name, title, volume,
- caption and several unique keywords. These search terms let you perform
- sophisticated searches using the Find command.
-
- 1. Using Find to search the image database
- ---------------------------------------
-
- Choosing Find opens the Search dialog box that lets you search for specific
- images with a common theme. Search by keyword, caption, volume, title or
- file name. Criteria strings are created using different combinations of
- search criteria from the four drop-down lists. Each drop-down list serves to
- narrow the search criteria. To create a simple criteria string to search for
- images containing a common keyword:
-
- 1. Choose Keyword from the search term drop-down list
- (i.e., keyword, caption, etc.).
- 2. Type a keyword in the text box or choose an existing
- keyword from the drop-down box.
- 3. Click Add to add the keyword to the list of search items.
- 4. Click OK.
-
- To create more complex criteria strings, continue to add variations on search
- terms to narrow the search criteria.
-
- For example:
-
- Choose AND from the first drop-down list to search for all images
- that match both criteria strings.
- Choose OR from the first drop-down list to search for all images
- that match either the first or second criteria strings.
-
- Experiment with the search tool to maximize the efficiency of your searches.
- Using a combination of sophisticated criteria strings, you can focus your
- searches and find specific images.
