Purpose
The purpose is the search for a person on a certain place. Supplementary parameters are the spouse and the parents
Basic Method
The Basic method uses two wildcard symbols, ? and *. ? matches any single character, and * matches any string of characters. The given pattern must match at word boundaries in the associated data field. So, for example, the pattern wood will match a surname of "Wood", but not "Atwood" or "Woodbury". The pattern wood* will match "Wood" or "Woodbury", but not "Atwood". The pattern *wood* will match "Atwood", "Wood", and "Woodbury".
Regular Expressions Method
The Regular Expressions method supports powerful text matching capabilities using a set of special characters to describe matching rules. By default, text fields on the search form are "contains" patterns, so a search for wood will match "Atwood", "Wood", "Woodbury", and more.
