Finding, sorting, and replacing data

This section describes three ways that you can manipulate data in FileMaker Pro:

•	Find records: you can find records that meet criteria you specify, such as records entered on a certain date or addresses in a particular city.

•	Sort records: you can rearrange records in a particular order by sorting fields. For example, you can sort alphabetically, numerically, by date, or by a custom sort order.

•	Find and replace data: you can search for and replace text across multiple fields, similar to the way you find and replace text in most word processing programs.
