Search by number

also use the wildcard character "*" to perform a search. This allows you to search using a partial

Search Rows - Rows to be returned. If you know the exact
name, it's the best to return as few rows as possible, so you don't have to search long list.

set type. If you want to select more than one, you need to search company by number.
