Thank you.  With your help I was able to do it using:

 

{LF:Name="*", Type="D"} & ({LF:id > 0} - {LF:Tags="Tag Name"}) & {LF:LOOKIN="File Location"}

({LF:id > 0} - {LF:Tags="Name of Tag"}) & {LF:LOOKIN="Folder address"}.

 

This is a search that only searches in a specific folder for everything that does not have a specific tag.  Don't know what all parameters you need in your search.

The easiest way to build your search syntax is to use the client.  Open the Search pane and add the criteria (less the Tag) to find what you are looking for.  Also include the Search Syntax pane.

After you have built the search, close or remove the search criteria panes leaving only the Search Syntax pane.  Check the box to "Include search syntax in query" to allw editing of the search syntax.  Place parentheses around the syntax that is there and then add the text to remove anything with your tag.

 

UPDATE:  I just realized that your search criteria for Tag allow you to specify searching for entries that do not have a tag.
