If Archive check box is checked (5), the deals that meet the selected criteria will be added to the archive file without stopping.

The archive filename consists of the date and the extension appropriate to the archive type selected from the archive chechbox pop-up menu.

To archive hands with a selected bidding sequence, enter that sequence as in example (3). The sequence must contain at least one "-" character.

For multiple combinations you can use "*" and "?" (never 1? or ?1 or *? or ?*):

• "*" instead of each character (examples: -1*- or -*S-), 

• "?" without any other sign instead of the entire bid (example -?-),

• "*" instead of P or X (example -*-),

• "**" instead of any bid excluding P and X (example -**-).

By typing: ?-2*-**-*-*n you could find:

W N E      S      

                      1D

2C    2H*1   P      2N

P      3N     P      P

P

or

W      N      E      S      

P      2H     3H*1   P

3N*2   P      4C     P

P      P
