Search History
Select the button
from the top button bar to view a table of previous searches (at
least one search must be completed for the button to be active).

any previous search performed in the current session.
The Search History display has four columns:

- Select to Edit - searches are listed in the order entered,

- Search Query - the word or phrase searched shown as a
hypertext link; select to re-execute the search
