Filtering SQL Objects Using Search This page last changed on Sep 25, 2007. ### Filtering SQL Objects Using Search The Search option available when creating a physical data service can be especially useful when: You know specific names of the data source objects you want to turn into data services. Your data source may be so large that a filter is needed. You may be looking for objects with specific naming characteristics such as:
    %audit2003%
The above search command retrieves all objects that contain the enclosed string. #### Using JDBC Syntax to Search SQL Objects You can search through available SQL objects using standard JDBC wildcard syntax. An underscore (_) creates a wildcard for an individual character. A percentage sign (%) indicates a wildcard for a string. Entries are case-sensitive. Another example:
    CUST%, PAY%
entered in the Tables/Views field the above search string returns all tables and views starting with either CUST or PAY. #### Special Considerations When Searching Stored Procedures If no items are entered for a particular field, all matching items are retrieved. For example, if no filtering entry is made for the Procedure field, all stored procedures in the data object will be retrieved.
