How to search the database

Begin by specifying the matching criteria from one or more of the five control list boxes. For example, you may select all agreements in the Caribbean that deal with faculty exchange.

One or more selections may be made within each list, and you may make selections from all five lists. The default selection for each of the control lists is " All ...". We do not recommend that you leave all the list box options to the default value since a large volume of output will be generated which may cause a lengthy response time. Users must narrow down the scope of their selection process. The database has in excess of 2,200 records and an "ALL" selection criteria for all the list controls will generate an output document in excess of 1.5M bytes. Therefore, a user editable limit control has been placed on the form to regulate the amount of information that can be retrieved at one time.

We suggest, for example, that you select one or two countries from the country list and two subjects/disciplines from the discipline list. Action is triggered when you click on the "Search" button.
