<BODY>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I have some users that are using a keyword that can be set to multiple values. They are trying to do a search where the keyword is NOT set to some particular value.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>They're getting some hits that they "shouldn't" get, i.e., tickets that DO have that value set in the keyword. It seems the thing that's throwing a wrench in the works is that there is also some other value set for the same keyword.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Pedantically speaking, I guess "keyword != A" would be satisfied by a ticket where the keyword is set to A+B.</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>(Because A+B != A alone.)</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>But in this case, these users don't care if B is set or not. They just want to see all the tickets that don't have A set in that keyword. Is there a tweak I can do somewhere to make this happen?</FONT></P>
