Ah, yes. I should have seen that the double quotes themselves will be removed
by the shell. Now it's OK.

Yes. When I enter the Query page from the main page and press "Submit query"
without changing any settings, i.e. "any" is selected in all fields, I get
the result:

3825 matches found
( Query executed  Tue Nov  6 15:54:32 2001 )

<list of results>

But when I select a particular value in a field (it doesn't matter which),
I get

Return code: 415 - Invalid expression
