Selecting multiple items

• It is possible to select multiple counties and/or bidders.
• The method on how this is done is based upon your device/software.

1. Search Entire database (available to subscribers only)
2. Search the last 'x' Lease Sales (available to subscribers only)
3. Search selected individual Sale Dates (then select one or more of the desired Sale Date(s) from the list below.)

• To display section numbers contained in the parcels in the Results Table then 'check' the box labeled 'Display section numbers in results table' (default state).
• If your search includes more than one lease sale, you can choose to have the results displayed is a single table, or a separate table for each Sale Date (auction).
• You can sort the data within a Results Table by one, two, or three keys using:
  • Sale Date
  • Parcel (default setting)
  • Township
  • Range
  • Bid ($/acre)
  • Bonus ($)
  • County
  • Bidder
  • Acres
• Tip: When you view your Results Table, the 'Primary key' variable's column will be colored gray
• The sort keys can be ordered by either Ascending or Descending

Search Form Parameters

The use of the 'number input fields' is optional. For example leaving both the Section input fields blank will result in a search of sections 1 - 36. If you are using these fields to screen your results it may be necessary to only input a value in the first column. For example if you wanted to limit your search to parcels with a winning bid of $2/acre simply enter the number 2 in the first column for Bid Amount and set the operator to '='.

• To search for a half township, enter the value in decimal form, for example: 56.5
• To search for a half range, enter the value in decimal form, for example: 67.5
• The Section, Township, Range, Bid, Bonus, and Acres parameters are set with one of these operators:
  '=' equal to (default state)
  '<' less than
  '>' greater than
  '<=' less than or equal to
  '>=' greater than or equal to
  'Not' not equal to
  
• Enter all six digits of the Lease Serial # to locate the corresponding lease.
• If selected, the 'Offer Pending' will limit your search to parcels that were footnoted as having presale offers in the original Lease Sale Notice.
• You can further refine your search with the 'and' and 'or' conditionals.
• If you do not want to limit your search based on these parameters, leave all the text fields blank.
• Tip: Clicking the button will clear the entire search form to its default values (clears all text input).
• Only Federal leases within the state of Wyoming are included.
• Note: Since the Federal Lease Sale does not include lands on the Wind River Indian Reservation, all Township values inputs will be 'North', and all Range inputs will be 'West'.
• Tip: If your search criteria for any one parameter results in no 'matching leases', your complete search will always be 0 parcels, regardless if one or more of your parameters have matched parcels.
