(Archived) Search for a range of numbers


Recommended Posts

Is there a way to search for a range of numbers contained in the Note Title?

 

Many of my notes have no relevance after a period of time.  If I included in the Note Title "DELETE ON 140501" when it was created, could I search for notes at some time in July of 2014 for all notes that contain the Delete ON dates from say 130101 to 140630 and then delete them?

 

I don't see the need to keep useless data on file.

In your example, you cannot search on a range.  But you can use a wildcard.  If you have "DELETE ON 140501" in the title, you can search on:

 

intitle:delete intitle:14* (to get everything to delete in 2014)

 

or

 

intitle:delete intitle:1405* (to get everything to delete in May 2014)
