I can get this to work: (Zip>"79499") AND (Zip<"79699")

But, I need to add the group too. I've tried the below (and other versions) and cannot get it to work:

(Zip>"79499") AND (Zip<"79699") AND (Group="Club1")

What am I doing wrong. I must send by zipcode to get geographical areas correct. Email only goes to group members living in a particular area.

Please advise.

Hi Robert

Unfortunately at this time the group is not accessible via the custom filter so you'll need to handle it some other way. For example you could add all members in the Zip codes 79499 - 79699 to a certain group or assign them a certain value for a "GeoCode" custom field.

You can then perform a compound search using the method outlined at the bottom of:

I was afraid of that. I must be able to begin sending to zipcode groups from any specific groups.

What I've done for now, is to export to an Excel file, then do my sorts and cut and paste into an empty file. I then select that file to send to when creating the email.

It would be very beneficial to be able to send by zip code ranges by group.

Hi Robert

FYI for the update we are working on we allow text comparisons when performing searches, so this could be handled using a compound search.
