on the toolbar of the Data panel.

Select to move the specified condition or group up to a higher level.

Logical operator drop-down menu
Specify the logical operator to apply for the specified condition lines. It can be "And", "Or", "And Not", or "Or Not".
Field text box
Specify the field on which to set the filter condition. The drop-down list contains all the DBFields in the query resource on which the dataset is created, as well as the parameters and valid formulas of these DBFields in the same catalog data source as the query resource. Select one to create the filter on it.
Operator drop-down list
Specify the operator to compose the filter condition.

The like string pattern matching operator is used to compare the first expression string value to the pattern string (the second expression). If you want to use wildcard character in the pattern string, you can only use "_" and "%". - [not] between
The operator allows the system to evaluate whether or not data values are located between a range of values indicated in the predicate. For the operator "between" or "not between", Designer displays two value text boxes for inputting the same type of values. - is [not] null
The operator is used in the WHERE clause predicates to match null values occurring in a specified data field. For the operator "is null" or "is not null", Designer does not display the value text box.
