The basic drill is to do a Find, sometimes with multiple parts, and the last
part or parts of the Find are those you want to omit.
The verbal equivalent is, "I want to FIND everyone in NY but OMIT those in
Albany" The process is described in the eBase manual. You might want to
spend some time with the users manual and the section on How to find
Information. It has a good basic tutorial on using finds.
Good luck - Clif
