<h1>Joining Filters</h1>

<p>A complex search comprises one or more filters. If you save the filters 
 when you define a search, you can create an even more complex search by 
 joining them together. Any filter can be joined; you can also join joined 
 filters.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>To join filters:</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>1. <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->From 
 the Search dialog, choose the Join Filters tab.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>2. <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->Select 
 the filter that you want to join from the drop-down list and click the 
 More button. </p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>3. <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->Select 
 an operator from the drop-down list and repeat steps 1-2 until you have 
 joined all of the filters you want.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Note</B></span>: <!--kadov_tag{{<spaces>}}-->&nbsp;<!--kadov_tag{{</spaces>}}-->To 
 edit a build filter, click the Edit button alongside the build filter 
 that you want to edit. When you have made the changes, select the Join 
 Filters tab to continue.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

 the entire filter, select the Not check box.</p>

 and then click the Save button.</p>
