Current Category
Lists the category and subcategories that you have chosen from Choose a category. You can use the linked categories to move up in the category hierarchy.
Choose a category
Specifies the category in which you want to search. Categories represent a different part of the Admin Console or Search interface, or a functional area in the program. Clicking Go restricts the search to that category; the category is placed in the Current Category bread crumbs to indicate that it is currently selected.
If the category you select has subcategories, they are listed in the Choose a category drop-down list. If the category does not have subcategories, Portfolio opens the results page to show all of the strings that are in that category.
Search in this category
Specifies the string (unlimited length) to search for in the currently selected category. All searches are case sensitive.
Search and replace in this category
Search and replace lets you designate a text string to locate in the current category and replace all occurrences of that string with an alternate string you specify.
Search For
Specifies the string (unlimited length) you want to replace.
Note: All searches are case sensitive.
Replace With
Specifies the string (unlimited length) you want to use to replace the Search string.
Search Results
The Search Results page lists the fields and strings from the Portfolio interface that have text that matches the search string from Edit Language File page.
