This works very well. But, say I don't click the Add button here to add the second string. How does it think about the filter? It seems to let most everything through. The first required string is there in most cases. Like, if I call the first string "_required_" to put on the Rule tab and I number the alternate possible strings, string1, and string2, say, then how does it make a conclusion in any case, or when neither string1 nor string2 is present? You already answered this. But if you say OR between the two Tabs on the window, its feels odd. It is another logic than just: string1 OR string2. And I did get that when I added two strings in just the main Rule tab. Like: _required_ string1 | string2 But then the alternates don't create a list, one below the other. -- Best regards, Adam ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
