The Filter Editor opens.
•If no filters have been set on the grid yet, the Filter Editor will contain the start of one condition based on the column header you right-clicked. (You do not need to keep this default condition.)

•If there were already filters set on the grid, the Filter Edit will display the conditions.

You can make changes in the Filter Editor - adding, editing, and/or deleting conditions, as required.
You need to build your own filters in the Filter Editor by constructing conditions and joining them with logical operators. To learn how to build filters, refer to the topic Construct Filters.
When you are done constructing filter criteria, click Apply to see the filtered grid with the Filter Editor still open.
If you are satisfied with the filter, click OK to close the Filter Editor and view the filtered grid.
As noted above, the Filter Panel below the selection grid displays the currently applied filter conditions.
To review how to edit and clear filter conditions from the Filter Panel, see the topic Filter Panel.
You can also click the Edit Filter button in the Filter Panel to re-open the Filter Editor window.
