I think I could do this in older versions but I'm not sure. For example: I want to d/l all par2 files for last month for a particular group Image link not allowed for unregistered users. I move the group to my temporary search folder using the "Send to Folder" option in the Groups list. Then perform searches using various options/filters (Local and Internet). The only results returned are where the par2s are the only files in the bunch (next to plus sign in subject list). I like to download the par2s to folders named for subject so I may make a helper app to make nzbs and use the autonzb function. Any suggestions are welcome.

To the Grammar Police: I put the period outside paraphrases to make you mad .. muhahaha

I don't think you can. For performance reasons, what's loaded when you look at a post list is just a summary of what's on disk. It just knows "has pars" and "doesn't have pars". It doesn't know what the names of the PARS are. So, you can't search for pars because their names aren't even in memory. I think you might be stuck making a single NZB for everything in the date range, then parsing through the single NZB, pulling out the PAR2's you want. Basically generating you own NZB's from the source NZB. If you take the Header and footer from the main NZB and paste in, <FILE> sections, it should be relatively easy for you to pull fill "FILES" out and generate new NZB's from the data.

The other option would be to use "SQLITE" to pull the data directly from the StorageData.db3 file and generate NZB's from that.

You might be able to make it happen by selecting all the files and expanding them but, I've not tried that and expanding all the files of a large listing can easily eat your ram.

ok. Thanks for reply. That gives me a couple of ideas.
