Is there a way I can search multiple pictures groups for all pictures of Chevrolet except files that say the color is white. (something like "chev -white"). I've looked in several RE references but haven't found a NOT operator.

You could do it with a filter profile because you can create an accept filter for "chevy" and a reject filter for "white".

Off the top of my head I'm, not sure how to do it with an RE. I think it's doable though.

I can search headers for "Chevrolet" and use a reject filer for "white" but is there a way to add multiple items at one time to a filter profile. I have tried "apple baby car doll" with each term separated by a space, a comma, a colon, a semi-colon, or a paragraph mark. I would like to add 60 to 70 terms but if there is no current way then I'll enter them one-at-a-time.

Will match each word. Just make sure not to add spaces. They have to be butted together this way. | is OR in regular expressions.
