Selecting records in a grid

To select a single record in a grid, select the check box in the first column of the row. In some grids you can only select one record at a time, but in most you can select additional records by selecting their check boxes.

To select a range of records in a grid, select the first row, then hold the Shift key and select the last row in the range.

Note: In the classic user interface, you must select the check box for the first row in your range, then hold the Shift key and click in the last row of the range, but outside the check box. For example, you might click in the space to the left of the check box.

In the modern interface you can select the check box or click anywhere in the row.

You can also select the check box in the header of the first column to select all records in a grid.

Note: The select all function works differently in the modern interface than in the classic interface.

In the classic interface, the check box in the header of the first column selects all records in the result set, whether or not they are currently shown in the grid.
For example, if a search returns 300 records, the results grid will only show the first 100 when it first loads. However, selecting the check box at the top of the first column will select all 300 records in the search results, not just the first 100. (The count of selected records in the bottom right corner shows the number of displayed records that are selected. If you have selected all records, the count will increase as you scroll down in the grid and more records are loaded.)
In the modern interface, the check box in the header of the first column only selects the records that are currently shown in the grid.
For example, if a grid is showing the first 100 of 300 search results, selecting the check box at the top of the first column will select those 100 records. As you scroll down and more records are loaded in the grid, those records are not selected.
