Retrieving a Saved Search

You can access the searches you save and run them again at any time. You can also delete a saved search, or move it to another folder.

To retrieve a saved search:

  1. Click the My Folders link on the top toolbar.
    The My Folders area displays the contents of the default folder titled My Folder. You can add other folders to the My Folders area.

  1. From the Folder list, select the folder containing the search you wish to retrieve.
  1. Locate the search in which you're interested, and review the attributes of the search. If they seem appropriate to your research questions, click the icon in the Type column.

    The search re-executes, and search results appear on the Results screen. 

Removed, Replaced, or Recategorized Sources

Several times a year, sources within Checkpoint are removed, replaced, or recategorized. When a saved search uses a removed, replaced, or recategorized source or source set, Checkpoint will display a message under the search name on the My Folders screen indicating that you should re-create the search or delete the obsolete sources from the search set.

Click the more... link to view a full list of sources for that search. Invalid sources appear as red italics in the list. To remove these sources from the search, click the here link at the top of the Source List window.

If you attempt to run a search containing obsolete sources, a message box will appear advising you of this. If the search contains valid sources you will be allowed to continue, otherwise you will be required to re-create the search.
