Wow! That suggests the "AND" operators are not working properly. I had not come across this problem, which explains my not understanding. My apologies to all. I guess building more complex searches via tagging is out then! Alan

I have individuals who all appeared in the 1911 Census. They all have several Events with the specific name England Census and some of them have Descriptions which include Clerk. If I search for Individual with EventName equals England Census AND EventDate equal 02 April 1911 AND EventDescription contains Clerk I DO NOT get ONLY those people whose 1911 England Census includes Clerk, but I get all those who have England Census Events, one of which is dated 02 April 1911 and any of which might contain Clerk. -- Jenny M Benson Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages after Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Archived messages from old mail server - before Nov. 21 2009: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Online technical support: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Help.asp Follow Legacy on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/LegacyFamilyTree) and on our blog (http://news.LegacyFamilyTree.com).
