+rallyo_lover Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Help please! I have been trying to create a pocket query to find some more unique caches near my area. So, I have been using the attributes to try to narrow it down to ones that may require a boat, wading, night caches, etc. Alas, all of my queries have come back with 0, even though I know that there are a number of ones listed as having a boat attribute within 10 km of my house. What am I doing wrong? Many thanks!! rallyo_lover Quote Link to comment

+rallyo_lover Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 Did you make sure to select the day for the PQ to run? Yup. Received the e-mail telling me that I had 0 finds in my PQ, as well as the immediate message after creating the PQ saying that it returned 0 (and did I want to preview it) Thanks! rallyo_lover Quote Link to comment
+mpilchfamily Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Maybe its looking for caches that have all the attributes you've selected rather then 1 or more of them. Try narrowing the search to a single attribute. Quote Link to comment

+Trucker Lee Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Maybe its looking for caches that have all the attributes you've selected rather then 1 or more of them. Try narrowing the search to a single attribute. Bingo. If you mark 5 attributes, the computer looks for a cache that has all five. Got to remember the K.I.S.S. rule when dealing with computers. They don't think, they don't read minds, they just run programs! Quote Link to comment
