Good afternoon,

I have a query in a "Search Repository" activity in Workflow that looks inside of a folder an subfolders. The level is only one parent and children, but children folders do not contain other folders.

Example:

Folder 1 = "Xerox" with children folder "Copier" and "Printer"

Folder 2 = "Dell" with children folder "Computer"

Folder 3 = "Office Max" with children folder "Paper", "Chair", etc

The children folder have metadata attached to it in which I want to search against.

When I do a search I have something like this:

{LF:LookIn="\some\parent\path", Subfolders=y}&{LF:name="*", Type="F"}

and in order to take into consideration the children folders I have "Subfolders=y"

This works great, but I'm guessing that if I search for something like "where metadata = findme" the search still searches thru the parent folder, even though the metadata is only applied to the children folder.

How can I improve my search query so that the search only searches inside of the parent folders, but not the parent folders?

Thank you,

Raul Gonzalez
