Abstract
Various technologies that facilitate performance of a data finding data (DFD) search are described herein. A user specifies entities, for example, by entering the entities into a query field, selecting the entities from a computer-executable application, or the like. The user further specifies an attribute of the entities that is of interest. A query is constructed based upon the entities and the attribute, and a search for tables is performed based upon the entities and the attribute. Values of the attribute for the selected entities are identified in a table, and the values of the attribute are returned.
