Changing the Security Window Display

There are a number of different ways you can change the display.

Filtering the Display

You can filter the users and projects displayed by specifying a text string. The text string can be applied to any combination of the fields.

To display all users and projects, click Tools » Filter » All Data.

To filter the display, complete the following steps:

  1. Do one of the following:

  2. Click image\winm0257_wmf.gif Filter and choose an option from the dialog box displayed.

  3. Click Tools » Filter and select an option from the submenu.

 MPM displays the Filter dialog box.

  1. Enter a text string that will be used as the filter criteria and click OK. MPM ignores upper and lower case letters when it searches for the text string. It must find the entire string.

Display and Hide Columns

You can display and hide the columns using Format » Column Hide.

Changing the Width of the Columns

You can change the width of the columns manually by dragging the vertical bar between the column headings, or by using Format » Column Width. The Best Fit option in the Column Width dialog box automatically sizes the columns. For information on these features, see Changing the Display.

Hiding and Displaying Projects

You can hide and display all projects, or the projects for a specific user. To hide and display the projects, you can use the Toolbar buttons, or the commands under the Tools menu. The buttons and commands are described below.
