While the simple search box in the toolbar area just searches for the entered words across all contact properties, the advanced search function allows a more specific query on the address book.
Click the Advanced toolbar button and the search form appears in the contact area on the right. Here you can enter search parameters for the individual contact fields. For example you can search for all contacts named “Paul” (First Name) who are living in “New York” (Address).
Start the search by pressing the Search button below the form. The contact list in the middle will show all contacts matching all the criteria’s entered. If none is listed, the Status Display will display an according message.
