Notes

The date fields and Genre fields will be ignored in the search as they are not stored as text in the song database.
Perform the Find from the Disc View if you want the disc fields (Disc Number, Album, etc) to be included in the search.
When in Song View, the search can only function if if you are not currently grouping any of the columns.
See the Find and replace options topic for details on what search options can be specified.
