× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.



www.jcrcmds.com  has a source scan for multiple strings with several options but I don't believe it has a "*NOT contains" option.  Should be easy to modify though.

You could also whip up something pretty easily with CL & SQL.  Just need to use an alias for the member.  I did this a few years ago but don't have the code at hand anymore.
