Ok, I was also just told that the "Subject" box is for exact matches. So that explains it. -Clint ----- Original Message ----- Neither am I. I was just told to put the word(s) in the "Has the words" text box, but nothing about the "Subject" text box. That works.

It couldn't be simpler, so I'm not sure what's going on.
