1) Search button above the grid. 2) filters above the grid. 3) the grid. 4) Add File button above the grid.  5) checkbox beside a file record in the grid. 6) magnifying glass icon in the content searchable column for a row. 7) empty column at the end of a row. 8) page numbers and number of records under the grid.

  1. Search button: click to enter text in the search box and the grid will pull all files that (1) contain the text and (2) you have permissions to access (read Grids for details).
  2. Files Grid filters: you can filter the Files Grid to narrow down the files displayed in the grid. The filters available by default are "File Kind", "Created Date", and "Last Updated Date".
