The Query Data 
option (available in the toolbar or the Select
menu) allows the user to create a query to search for any subset of data
in a Dips file. If the query is successful, a new Dips file will immediately
be generated, and a new Grid View will display the selected data.
Note that the rows of the new subset file will be exactly as found in the original file, and all of the Job Control information will also be preserved (i.e. Global Orientation Format, Declination, Traverse Information etc.) The new files created by Query Data are NOT processed files. If the user wishes to save processed Dips files, they must use the Save Processed option in the Files menu.
Also note: if Sets exist, the Set Column can only be saved as an Extra Column in the new file created by the Query. Furthermore, the Set Column will ONLY be saved if the "Save Set Column as an Extra Column" checkbox is selected in the Preferences dialog. If this checkbox is NOT selected, then the Set ID column will NOT be saved to the new file which is created after the query.
