Overview  
CyberContact allows you to search and locate each person, company, Web site, E-mail message, document and activity that is stored in your database. The program features two search tools Search and Find. The Search Window presents you a convenient list view of the search results but can perform searches only on a selected list of the fields. The Find dialog box on the other hand has the advantage of enabling you to search on any field plus the ability to search based on a partial match anywhere inside a field. 

The Search tool is accessed through the Search button. The Find tool is accessed through the Find button
