I’ve been exploring the feasibility of transferring a database from FileMaker to LibreOffice Base. One of the features that FileMaker has that has been important to the users has been the ability to combine filtering in more than one field into a query, i.e. something like “WHERE field1 = 1 AND field2 = ‘a’”, but through the GUI. How would I go about doing this in a Base form? The standard record search appears to only be able to search a single field or all fields (treating them all the same).
