You can compare the results of previous resource searches. You can refine the comparison by combining results or excluding them.
To compare the results, use the Compare resources icon from the Show Resources view to open the Compare
search results window. Then specify which results you want to combine
and which you want to exclude. You can quickly compare lists of resources
to see differences. For example, to find all resources in region
IYDZZ428 and not in region IYDZEJ02, you can select each region in
the Region window and use the menu option Show resources to
create two search results, one for each region. Because the results
are both stored in the history, they are accessible using the Compare
resources icon
.
The Compare search results window lists all the available searches in the history. Any resources selected have their results included in the overall result. In the following screen capture, the results of the search Resource for IYDZZ428 are selected, so that all resources in their regions are included in the result.
The Compare search results window also lists all the available searches in the history. Any resources selected have their results excluded from the overall result. In the following screen capture, the results of the search Resource for IYDZEJ02 are selected, so that any resources in this region are excluded from the result.
The overall result set combines all resources for searches that are selected in the "Show resources in" list, but excludes resources that are in any of the results from searches selected in the "and not in" list. The result is shown in the Show Resources view where all resource types that are in Region IYDZZ428 and not in Region IYDZEJ02 are displayed.
