WebOffice 10 R3 enables the user to search for objects on one specific layer or on multiple layers simultaneously. Whenever the user does a multiple layer search then only the layers
•that are currently set to visible and
•that can be displayed because the current map scale is within the ArcMap layer scale range
are taken into consideration.
See Behavior of layer specific queries/Selections for the WebOffice 10 R3 behavior for specific layer queries.
