PART QUERY

Use this inquiry function to create a selective list of parts that can be easily imported into the modules to facilitate inquiries. When you select the Copy pushbutton or place your cursor anywhere on a selected row, the part ID is copied to the clipboard. Use the Edit-Paste menu function (if available for that module), or the Control V command, to paste the part into an application. This Part Query function can be minimized and imported into the module currently active (using the Alt-Tab keys), allowing you to select a new part or criteria if required.

Note: When you first call up the Part Query screen, a Subquery screen will display in which you can select the criteria required to view part information.
