[rt-users] searching "select multiple" Custom field

Roy,


	You might get better results if your last "AND" (CF.FOO like xxxx AND 
CF.FOO like xxx) was an "OR". Your query will only pull those tickets if 
that CF has BOTH values. Since you stated the values could be anywhere 
from AAA to FFF, then perhaps you would want ANY ticket that has either 
of the values you are looking for. Just a thought.
