RELMA won’t let me search the full database anymore after I imported the sample local term file during the last workshop. All it does now is search through the terms included in the local term file. Deleting the sample file also isn’t working.  
Any way around this to retrieve the same functionality as provided by [search.loinc.org](http://search.loinc.org)?

Hi Julian,  
Use the first tab, labeled Search, instead of the second tab, Mapping Screen. You’ll have everything you need. If you need the style of the mapping search window, you can just type over the LMOF without incident.

Have a happy and safe 4th of July.
