filters

Post by cjl_72 »

all working well now but what I want to know is...

in filters I currently simply search for "rtc" in the text and all rtc messages appear in lower box for all of qld.

if I wanted to see "rtc" in a particular area could I simply search for "rtc" and "particular area" separated by , or ; like rtc , Gladstone or rtc ; Gladstone or maybe even rtcgladstone without a space or the "&" symbol between the 2 words ? tried without the comma breaking the 2 and did not work... is it possible?

Thanks in advance

Anyone? Or does anyone know where i can look? Have read the tutorial here as well as the help bit on pdw and looked around via google etc and cannot see any reference to the same question.

Did you check the manual?
Text
This control lets you enter a word or phrase to be matched by the filter. Text matching is not case sensitive, so the word/phrase can be in lower or upper case.This word or phrase can be anywhere in the message. You can enter up to 10 strings for one single filter, separated with a ‘&’, like “Call&Jones&ASAP”.

Tried as u said as per pics and still not working? Saved as rtc&pomona. Do the words need to be part of a phrase or can they be anywhere in the message individually as i am trying.. was working as just rtc so i know it does work.. Thanks in advance

I don't think they work properly with the PDW application as I have tried them as well and never had any luck like you!
