Sesame Database Manager | Feature Detail


How many times have you wanted to run a few different "specs" on the same set of records
without having to go back and reretrieve those records for each operation? In Sesame you can
sort, mass update, drill-down search, re-sort, remove a few records from your results (without
deleting them from your database), add a couple more records, and run a report - all without
retrieving a new batch of records. Almost all the "record operations" in Sesame are based
on using a batch of records. So you can build your batch and operate on it to your hearts desire,
without ever having to go back and get the same batch over again.
The following commands can all be done on a batch without having to rerun your retrieve:
- Delete Record(s)
- Print Form(s)
- Remove from Results (removes a record from the batch without actually deleting it from the database)
- Table View
- Copy
- Mass Delete
- Export
- Import
- Remove Duplicates
- Delete Duplicates
- Re-sort
- Run Reports
- Add to Results (based on Search)
- Search in Results (Drill Down Search)
- Remove from Results (based on Search)
Because Sesame allows you to remove records from your results, either by another search or
simply by hand, you can perform important operations like finding all of the records that match
a particular zip code, and then remove those that (while they have that zip code) shouldn't be
updated, or reported. No longer do you have to depend on needlessly complex searches just to
filter out that handful you want to make exceptions.
