The following table shows examples of filters you could create and the cor-
responding files which would be displayed.
An example of a more complex filter is:
News <AND> 1997 <NOT> Sport <OR> Travel
This displays all News stories from 1997, apart from Sport, and all Travel
stories.
Note The application interprets the filter logic from left to right (or from top to
bottom as the categories appear in the filter window).
The simplest filter is a single category. From the List of Categories, you
select one by: either double-clicking it; or highlighting it and pressing the
Enter/Return key on the Keyboard. The files tagged to that category appear in
the File Maintenance window.
You can modify the filter by displaying the List of Categories, highlighting
the required category, and clicking a
Logic button.
Note The system automatically tags some files to certain categories, depending on
the file type and the application used to create the file. It is not possible to
remove a system category from the filter if it has been added by an applica
-
tion.
Automatic Filters
The DUSTBIN and ARCHIVE categories are used in a special way. They are auto-
matically added to every filter by default, and are preceded by the logical
flag <NOT>. So the filter always requests the files not dustbinned and not
archived. Archived files appropriate to the filter can be added to the File
List by switching on the
ARCHIVE button in the File Maintenance window.
Note The DUSTBIN and ARCHIVE categories can also be added to the filter by
explicit instructions from you; e.g., if you wish to view only the archived files
which match the filter, you must add <AND> ARCHIVE to the filter.
Filter and Tag-Cats Modes
You can toggle the FILTER and TAG CATS buttons to show two different views
of the database; this enables you to tag and untag files to and from different
categories.
