Background: I set up a template for a department (not financial) that has 7 years of handwritten reports to scan for retrieval, mainly for FOIA. There are many boxes of documents. Because nothing will OCR from the paper, I am requiring Report #, Address & Date in the template. A single report might range from 5 to 100 pages and there are multiple reports every day. I should mention this is not long term retention, their reports need to be kept for 10 years and the most current are computerized.

For efficiency, I am suggesting creating a single daily or weekly document for these reports. It is easy to set up multiple dates and addresses in the template, but the problem is the report #s which are consecutive. This gave me the idea of creating a field that would be filled with the report # range (say 4005-4050) rather than enter each number separately. But would a search by report number find it in a range? As an example, we might want to search for report # 4010. Is this possible?

I know you can search by range, I just don't know if there is way to create a searchable range in a field.

Honestly, it might be easiest to do the report range as the document name and have searches performed by address.
