Valid values include AND and OR. The first item in a rule and the first connector in a block
display empty fields. Each condition or block you add displays with an AND connector (except
the first item) in the list of conditions or blocks. If you add one or more conditions to a block,
each condition displays with an OR connector (except the first condition) in the block.
Fields containing a green triangle ( ) in the lower right corner are editable.
