Filtering contacts in Outlook

I am trying to create a View in Outlook Contacts using the filter option.  I
would like to "OR" several filters  in order to select a contact, e.g., if
Field "A" is 1 OR Field "B" is 3, I would like to list the contact.  The
Advanced filter feature only seems to allow "AND" relationships.  Is there
any way to "OR" the filters?

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307922/en-us for information on the Query Builder, which can help with this.

Yes. Just use the \Outlook\11.0 key.
