Comma Separated Values (Event Log Filters only)
You can separate multiple values with a comma to avoid creating multiple filters. Simply combine all the values the field should match with commas and make sure you are not using a space after or before the comma. For example:
Print,MrxSmb
Supported by all fields in the "Details" section.
Negation Symbol (Event Log Filters only)
You can negate a value by pre-pending it with an exclamation mark. For example, to match all events except for those with the source of Print you could use the following:
or
!*Print*
Do not combine regular values (values without the negation character) and values with a negation character (e.g. "!Print,MrxSmb" is not supported). |
Wildcards
The wildcards * and ? are supported.
* | matches zero or more occurrences of any character |
? | matches one occurrence of any character |
Note: Filter strings, whether containing wild cards or not, are never case sensitive. |
