Filtering Messages in Message ClassesLocate this document in the navigation structure

Context

You filter for short texts and message numbers to search for particular messages of a message class. This functionality helps you to find and reuse messages which already exist. So you can prevent creating the almost identical message several times.

Note The message class editor displays per default all messages which are defined in the message class.
Example

You want to check if there are messages which contain the combination 'airline carrier' in the short text. After you have entered this combination in the filter text field, the editor will automatically display the corresponding messages.

Procedure

  1. In the Project Explorer, expand the relevant package node.
  2. Double-click the relevant Message Class node.
  3. In the filter text field of the message class, enter the text or message number, which you want to search for.
