texte = The [search] context only supports one selection parameter for each DB field. You cannot test the same field directly twice in the same search.However, you can get around this limitation by using group fields and only specifying one field for the group.Using your example, you could do the following:&wnlocationdata=HE&group1field=location&wogroup1datarq=_open Since location and group1 are different identifiers, both selection parameters will be executed.- brian At 12:35 PM 8/23/02, Gary Krockover wrote: >Hey all, > >database has a field, named location.
