SOLIDWORKS PDMSearch for String withInput StringString with an escape symbol \.Double quotation marksFor example, to search for "speaker",enter the string as \"speaker\"String with an escape symbol \.Double quotation marks that are a part ofan explicit searchFor example, to search for 3" pipe, enterthe string as "3\" pipe".Numeric constant followed by "String with or without escape symbol.For example, to search for a length valuesuch as 3", enter the search string as 3\"or 3".• In case of multiple operators used in a search, SOLIDWORKS PDM evaluates the searchoperators in this order: (), NOT, AND, and OR.• You can use AND, OR, and NOT search operators or their equivalent symbols &, |, !respectively.• You can search for text, integer number, float, and date type data.• You can use the AND and OR operators with or without the :. For example, for ANDoperator, use AND, AND:, &, or &:.• The search field supports * and ? as wildcard characters.• You can use = to search for an exact string. For example, to search for a Tools string,enter the search string as =Tools.• In case of a string that contains more than one word, you can use "" to search for thestring in the same order of words. For example, to search for pipe tools, enter "pipetools".When you upgrade to SOLIDWORKS PDM 2020, the previously saved searches areupgraded to follow the new search rules while maintaining the previous behavior andsearch results.AND (&) OperatorSearches for results that include both the term before and the term after the operator.Search String Examplesterm1 AND term2TERM1 & TERM2AND: term1 term2&: term1 term2DescriptionReturns the match that includes term1 and term2.

Search String Examples
Description
"(*" term1 term2 "*)" OR
"(*)" term1 term2
AND is the implicit operator for the SPACE character.
Returns the match that is enclosed in the parentheses
and that contains term1 and term2.
Examples of valid search results:
• (term1 term2)
• (term2 term1 term3)
"(*" "term1 term2" "*)"
or "(*)" "term1 term2"
AND is the implicit operator for the SPACE character.
Returns the match that is enclosed in the parentheses
and that contains the string term1 term2.
Examples of valid search results:
• (term1 term2)
• (term3 term1 term2 term4)
OR (|) Operator
Searches for results that include the term before or after the operator or both.
Search String Examples
term1 OR term2
TERM1 | TERM2
OR: term1 term2
|: term1 term2
Description
Returns the match that includes either or both term1
and term2.
Examples of valid search results:
• term1
• term2
• term2 term1
"(*" term1 OR term2 "*)"

Returns the match that is enclosed in the parentheses
and that includes either term1 or term2 or both.
Examples of valid search results:
