25 <p>This application shows a hierarchical, relational, searchable
26 view of all of the product, feature, component, file, and patch
27 data managed by MSI, for all products installed on the system.</p>

30 <h4>Navigation</h4>
31 <ol>
32 <li><p>The tree on the left is self-explanatory.</p></li>
33 <li><p>Click on a row-header (grey box on the left side of the
34 grid) to jump to a table with more details about the item referred
35 to by that row. For example, clicking on a row-header of a
36 table that lists components will take you to a table that lists
37 the files in that component. Not every table has this ability,
38 but the cursor will turn to a hand shape to indicate when this is
39 possible.</p></li>
40 <li><p>Also you can navigate back and forward through your history
41 using the buttons in the application or mouse buttons 4 and 5.</p></li>
42 </ol>
43 <p><br/></p>

45 <h4>Searching</h4>
46 <p>The search feature is not hard to find. By default, searches
47 are limited to the current table. However, if you choose to find
48 &quot;In Subtree&quot; by checking the box, the search will include
49 the current table as well as all tables under the current location in
50 the tree. While this can take a long time if there is a lot of
51 data under the current node, you can stop the search at any time with
52 the stop button. The search pauses when a match is found, but
53 clicking &quot;Find&quot; again will continue the same search from that
54 point (unless you uncheck the &quot;Continue&quot; checkbox or change
55 the search string).</p>
