Search hangs...
« on: December 11, 2008, 06:25:48 AM »
Hey there,

I'm having trouble using the search. I select "Search" from the edit menu and try to search on items that are of a "Lens Focal Length" of 24. I left it all night and nothing was put into the contact sheet. Am I using this feature wrong? I'd like to see how often I use that focal length so I can make some decisions on a lens to purchase...

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Can you post a screen shot of the Search parameters you used?

Please use the 'Additional Options...' link when you're composing your response to this message and you can upload your screen shot.

Thanks,

Thanks for your help. Unfortunately, I'll have to do that this evening. I can explain a bit better, though.

The criteria were as follows:

First drop-down: Lens Focal Lenght

Second drop-down: Equal to

Third box: 24

That's it...and I had new contact sheet selected...
