Description

To display inventory that matches exactly to a specific description, type the description in the Description box.  Only inventory that has a description matching exactly with the description typed here will list.  If you want to search by description but you are not sure of the exact description and wish to use a wildcard search, you should leave the Description box blank and perform a keyword search.

Keywords 

The inventory fields that are searchable by keyword are Description and Model.   Select the field that you would like to search by and enter the keyword(s) in the box provided.  An asterisk (*) acts as a wildcard.  Follow a portion of the keyword to search by with an * in order to be thorough and catch misspellings, extended words, etc.  If searching for multiple keywords in the same field, separate the keywords with a space.  The order of the words is not important.

Example:  To search for all inventory containing both the words electric and guitar, you might type elec* guit* in the Description box, as shown here.
