Re: In EPDM's windows search, how can I avoid seeing files in the Archive state?

In many search fields you can use a NOT operator !=. But in the filter for workflow states, the != operator isn't allowed. I would recommend either 1) have your administrator remove visible access to Archive state files, or 2) sort your search results by State and ignore the Archive results.

Michael - So you guys are busy improving the search to address these type of issues right?
Chris - You could also put the files in an out of the way folder (say 1 level below the root), and just search all the active cad files in a different folder. Can create a Search Favorite to jump to this folder. This may not be practical... Another idea would be to add a variable that is set when the Archive state is set (and use Dispatch to set if for the existing Archived files). Then you can remove them using that variable. Can set it up in a Favorite, or even better with a default value set in the Search Card.

Absolutely Brian! There is an enhancement request open for searching for files in multiple states (which should include filtering). Please add your comments to it through the customer portal so we can give it the right priority.
