What are the Search options?

Two different search mechanisms are available to you.

Access Global Search by clicking the oval ‘search’ button on the Home Page of The Producer Online. The Global Search queries the broadest number of products simultaneously and is the quickest and easiest way to find the most information in the least amount of time.

Multiple Product Searches are possible by holding down the control key while clicking and highlighting the desired product(s). Simply insert your search word or phrase and go! The frame on the right side of the screen lists the results of your search, including titles.

Access Specific Search by clicking the ‘Edit / Find (on This Page)’ option on your browser tool bar. This navigation tool is used to find specific words or phrases in the ‘active frame’ currently in use. In some cases, you may have a right and left frame open at the same time. A mouse click inside a frame makes that frame ‘active’.

Note: You have two frames open. The frame on the left is the Table of Contents. The frame on the right displays your search results. By using the ‘specific search’, you can perform searches in either frame simply by making that frame ‘active’.

Example: You want to find information on ‘deductible’ in the Commercial Property Coverage form. Select 'Commercial Property Coverage form' from the left side bar. Place your cursor anywhere on the opened coverage form and click. Now, go to 'Edit' on the top tool bar, then 'Find (on This Page)' and insert the word ‘deductible’ as the word you want to find. Click 'find next' until the appropriate selection is found.
