Scan MapInfo Files > Priority Search Options

Use this page to enable Priority Search to search only the selected folders in the order they are listed in the folders list box.



  • Select Folder icon — Opens the Select Folder dialog, which is used to add a folder to the list of folders to scan or rescan.

  • Delete icon — Deletes the selected item(s) from the list box.

  • Up arrow icon — Moves the selected folder up in the folders list box.

  • Down arrow icon — Moves the selected folder down in the folders list box.

  • Check All — Used to turn ON the check boxes for all of the folders listed.

  • Clear All — Used to turn OFF the check boxes for all of the folders listed, exempting its subfolders.

  • Folders list box — Displays the folders that will be scanned for the presence of MapInfo documents.

If the check box to the left of an item is ON (has a check mark in it), the subfolders will be searched.

If the check box to the left of an item is OFF, the subfolders will not be searched.

Tip: The order in which the folders appear in the folders list box is important because the scanning tool will search for documents in the folders in the order they are listed.
