I suggest that you need to provide the actual code you are using to generate the NSPredicate, because what you are wanting to do just isn't that hard.
The problem may not be in the predicate format string. I would have used @"NOT CONTAINS[cd] %@" as my first pass, and been quite surprised if it didn't work. NSPredicate has its quirks, but the straightforward stuff tends to be... straightforward. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
