What I'm asking is how do I search for available agents in diff places? I have been running the crap out of lvl 1's and it is getting a bit routine and boring. I've been working hard to get to lvl 2's and am not sure if I need to go to a lower security area or if 2's will be offered at the same place. I just don't want to be running the same missions over and over then come to find out all I had to do was go to another area and a 2 was there the whole time. Please don't flame me, I'm new and just asking a question. Thanks in advance.

When in station, on the right above agents is "Agent Finder" button.

I know. What I'm asking is is there a way to search other stations without actually docking in that place? For instance, I am doing security missions. Is there a way to see if there are other missions of the same kind in other places?

Again, use the Agent Finder when docked in a station. There are MANY options you can use once that Agent Finder window is open.

IE:
Regions, mission types, factions, etc. then there is a slider at the top of the screen which will show you level 1-5 agents.

Only drawback to the Agent Finder is you have to be docked SOMEWHERE to use it. But that option is everything you need to find agents that you want.

Besides using the Agent Finder, there's a few other ways to find available Agents.

All Available Agents:
Open the map ( F10 ) - Star map - Color Stars by - My Information - My Agents. Systems highlighted in green have agents that you can access. Hold mouse over one of the systems for info.

All Corporation Agents:
Open Character sheet - 'Standings' section - 'Liked By' Tab - Right click and select 'Show Info' (or click the blue 'I' icon) on Corporation - 'Agents' Tab

Agents In Specific Faction:
Open Character sheet - 'Standings' section - 'Liked By' Tab - 'Show Info' on Faction - 'Member Corps' Tab - 'Show Info' on Corporation - 'Agents' Tab

Not strictly true - if you look at the agents tab on your People and Places, the Agent Finder is on the bottom right. It can be accessed in space this way.

Perhaps I should be more helpful for the OP.

To use the agent finder - either use the button above the agents in a station, or on your agents tab on your People and Places.

Once open, make sure the filter are extended to the left side of the screen. Click on Filter Options just below the sliding line with 1-5 on it.

Then, on those filtering options you can select whatever you want. On 'Agent Type' you will probably want "Security", and on 'Security Status' you will most likely desire "High Sec". Leave 'Region' and 'Solar System' to "Any" so your options aren't limited too much.

To get a narrower list of agents for the corp you are already running for, select it in the 'Corporation' filter.
