I am currently writing a script that i would like to search the entire database for terms. I utilized the history of a current project  but the code manually adds each field. is there a shortcut to add all fields from the database?
 
task.AddFieldToInc "ACCOUNT_NUMBER"
task.AddFieldToInc "DESCRIPTION"task.AddFieldToInc "DATE"
task.AddFieldToInc "NAME"

Try

task.IncludeAllFields

This will copy all the fields from the source file.

Hi, I just looked at what is allowed in the Search function and you have to list all the fields.  Unfortunately you can't use the task.IncludeAllFields in this function like you can in other functions.  I just sent an email to IDEA asking for this option but for now you will have to list the fields.
