Hi Andre,
First you could use a comma as the delimiter in your list: this would
allow to have words and "phrases" at the same time.
Then just an idea I use often:
unmark all cds
mark cds by finding whole item 1 of fld "Keywords"
repeat with i = 2 to the number of items of fld "Keywords"
mark cds by finding whole (item i of fld "Keywords") AND the
mark of this cd
end repeat
Elegant and very fast ;-)
The process marks cards where all "items" are found at least one time.
The trick: you can specify more than one condition to mark cards...
Then you can easily get the list of current marked cards or just
navigate through the marked cards only:
go next/prev marked cd
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I was just about posting an answer to Éric, when I read the
messages from Jeanne, Wilhelm, and Jim. Thanks a lot to all of you
for your attention ; that makes me much more serene for this week-
end !

BUT I would like to improve the selectivity of the filter:
In order to get more precise and better selected results, I would
like to be able to search not only single words, but possibly
phrases (may be this word is ambiguous as it is for French people ;
simply I mean “expressions” or “compound-words”), such as
“multimedia learning” or “speech recognition” or “touch screen
display” etc. but as wholes, not as two or three different single
words. Actually, a text including “speech” somewhere and
“recognition” elsewhere could well not pertain at all to the
subject “speech recognition”. (but, currently, it would be returned
by my script).
So, I much would like that the request of a user could include such
expressions and/or single words as well.
For example, [children image “multimedia learning”]; (I quote here
only to mean that the third keyword is not two words but one
expression).
I think that the problem is right here. If I had to search for only
one word or one “expression”, I could easily do it by means of
“find whole” or find “string” as you are suggesting.
But I have to search for the list of keywords and/or
keyExpressions. I want to select the cards that include
simultaneously each word and expressions requested by the user,
regardless of their order and their location in the 3 fields.
Best Regards from Paris,
Eric Chatonet
