AND here make no sense, isn´t it ?

Some Time ago, I made a parsing routine, written in C, to give the user
the ability to do such a search. I used following chars to indicate:

value | value means or for alpha and numerical (can be multiple
or´s)
value : value means in range for numerical only
! value means not equal for alpha and numerical

If you like to see my parsing code, I could send it to you. It was
written for
a UNIX programm, using a informix database.
