ignore a match in a query

[Fielder, Todd Patrick]

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a way to ignore a match in a query?  For example, I 
have two strings

1)      "Record type: record"

2)      "Record type: cd"

I do not want the text "record type" to match, so searching for the text 
"record" should return string 1 and not string 2.  I can't say "NOT Record 
Type" because then neither string would match

Thanks

-Todd
