Feature Description
Number of entries selector
Selects how many accounts entries will be displayed (a vertical scroll bar will appear when more entries than can fit in the control are selected).
Off-screen entry selector
A set of numbered buttons, each representing a sub-page containing the selected number of currently off-screen accounts entries.
Account search
Allows the current set of account entries to be filtered by a search string. Search takes place across all fields in the account line and is applied with each character is typed.
Count of entries
Shows a count of the individual accounts currently accessible (this count is updated as searches are applied).
Sortable Columns
All columns with a pale grey double headed arrow on the right margin of the column header cell are sortable. A single click in the header cell sorts the displayed account list in ascending order by the contents of the column. A second click re-sorts in descending order. The list can only be sorted by one column at a time. Currently applied sorts are indicated by replacing the grey double headed arrows with a single dark grey arrow head (down for descending order, up for ascending order).
Account selection
Clicking on account row (rows are highlighted as the mouse moves over it) will cause the individual account to be applied in the filter. All pages in the data section will now display only data related to the selected account.
