texte = Hi everyone version=6.0 platform=unix-Linux Intel RedHat I hit a wall with group searching which I did not expect. Can you guys confirm the behavior so I can move on to tackling the problem another way? (Meanwhile I keep thinking group searching *should* work the way I want, no?) imagine a db like so: ==================== START my.db ============================== feeled1_Fruit

But it returns the 1st, 3rd, and 6th records. If you were coding this, how would you write this search so that it finds ONLY record #1 & #3, using grouped fields? (I need to be able to tell the search to return records where: -[feeled3_HowUsed] = baked dessert, *AND* -[feeled1_Fruit] = (*either* "1apple" or "3cherry" or "4mango" ...which is only records #1 and #3.) ------------ Govinda
