the keepass SEARCH bar
any way to search for multiple values within NOTES? (I see there is a way to do it with TAGS, but canlt find way for notes)
I have created a string, in notes
STORAGE SUBSTRING 0
STORAGE SubSTRING 1
STORAGE SUBSTRING 2
these tell me which categories i want some of these groups in (this is independent of folders)
I want to find all the entries that have STORAGE SUBSTRING 0, OR STORAGE SUBSTRING 2, then i export thse to a subset password file
ALSO, for TAGS, I found how to ADD tags,but where do these show up as? the reason i want to use NOTES is that they are visible,easily editable while viewing. thanks
any assistance appreciated, thanks

You can do a search with a regular expression. Separate the terms with '
|'.https://keepass.info/help/base/search.html#mode_re
If you want to do this via the quick search box (instead of the 'Find' dialog), enclose the regular expression in '
//'.https://keepass.info/help/base/search.html#quick
Information about tags:

i got it to work
using the NOTES, embedding a string there
for an OR search
//(VOFM_subset_flag_0)|(VOFM_subset_flag_1)//
for an AND search
"VOFM_subset_flag_0" "VOFM_subset_flag_1"
thanks !!
