Note: If a term is referenced implicitly in an expression, then selecting In an expression and searching for that term does not find it. For example, if you enter the expression +10 into the rule set editor for the term myterm, then the resulting expression for myterm is =myterm+10. Because the expression that you entered into the rule set editor did not explicitly reference myterm, the search was not successful.
