But if he doesn't activate RegEx, he doesn't need to escape these characters. I see no reason to use RegExes for such a simple query. @Paul: What you have done is use the "|" character for OR. NOT (FirstAdd OR SecondAdd) = NOT FirstAdd AND NOT SecondAdd. The logic is correct, but somehow it doesn't work. Try this: On the Rules tab (not alternatives tab), create both conditions seperately. (You do this by hitting the Add button.) You get: FirstAdd - presence in kludges - no SecondAdd - presence in kludges - no. They will be AND'ed. From a Boolean POV, it is the same as you did, but maybe for some other reason (Murphy?), it could work. Let us know. -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
