Registry key value collection - computer shows up under both "contains" and "not contains"

Hi am looking for some guidance on Registry scanning and creating a collection.

I have a Registry Scanner that checks hive "HKEY_USERS" with Include path set to "\Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins*".

It works fine but the issue I have is creationg a collection of computers that have an add-on installed and a collection that doesn't hae it installed.

The installed add-on can be identified as existing by having a "Value Name" of "Friendly Name", with a susequent "Value" of "AddonNameHere".

Problem is if I build a collection that has registry condition of "Value Name" "Equals" "Friendly Name" + "Value" "Equals" "AddonNameHere", and then create one where "Value" "Does Not Equal", computers show up in BOTH collections that have the add-on.

    I think I sorted it out. I had to add a nested clause to be:

    NotAny		
Registry	Path	Ends With	Software\Microsoft\Office\Outlook\Addins\AddOnNameHere
