Download baits

eArray lets you download files that contain baits from bait search results in TDT, FASTA, COMPLETE, or MINIMAL file formats. You can download both filtered (when bait filtering is available) and unfiltered lists, and you can also select specific baits from your search results to include.

1. Perform a search for baits.
   
   A search results pane appears, with the baits that match your search criteria.

2. In the Search Results pane, select one or more baits to include in your downloaded file. Use the following as a guide:

   • To select an individual bait, mark the check box in its row.

   • To go to another page of results, click one of the Pages links. eArray remembers the baits that you select as you go from page to page.

   • To reverse the order of baits in the list, click the Bait ID column heading.

   • To apply a filter to the bait list, click Filter. If you have defined a default filter, you can also click Apply Default Filter. For more information about filters, see Apply a probe filter and Create a custom probe filter.

   • To select all of the baits on the current page, mark the check box in the heading row of the Search Results.

   • To select all of the baits on every page of the search results, mark Select Entire Result.
