I have header text text sender because whatever you used last time you used all four, or more stick. What is really the problem is that you can search for A and B and C, or you can search for A or B or C but there is no way to search for A and B and C or D -- Dwight A.

These are: Header > contains Sender contains Subject contains Text contains I guess the interface is slightly different between our versions. In 4.0.38 each of those "search condition" lines has two drop-down boxes to choose between header, text, memo, subject, etc. and to choose "contains," "starts with," etc. > I can add more by clicking on the "New Condition" > button below that.

For 4.0.38 this can be achieved by editing the registry value at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat!\Finder\Scopes -- Best regards MFPAmailto:expires2...@ymail.com Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at statistics!

In fact, no we are talking about different things. You have just described "search string". I have four "search conditions". These are: Header contains Sender contains Subject contains Text contains I can add more by clicking on the "New Condition" button below that. However, I cannot reduce the number of conditions to only three or two. -- Cheers, Thomas. http://thomas.fernandez.hat-gar-keine-homepage.de/ Message reply created with The Bat! 4.2.36.4 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

We are both referring to the same thing: in the box marked "text contains" (or "subject contains" or whatever) I enter a string to search for.
