I know I can just click column heading, but I want to restrict it to that search, so knowing the term allows me to save the search for later.
(lookup name is "#audio")

This is me wasting ages trying to do a simple search for my audio books

audio
#audio
#audio="yes"
Arrrrggg - goes to make tea
"#audio="yes"
"#audio=""
gee sus
Audiobooks!
#audio=yes
"#audio=yes"
oh bolloxs
Make a post, and complain how lame the search is, and maybe someone will feel sorry and tell me what it is. - Then have a long discussion on the merits of such search terms, and my competence as a PC user
#audio:true
Make it a saved search with a friendly name like: Audiobooks

Typu in the name where it says Saved search in light letters and click the Green Plus
