If your item numbers can be defined with more than 9 characters, there will be extra spaces in the item number value stored in the data, and thus the record selection that Ryan suggested would not work. If the way you want to select items is a 'pre-determined' way that will not change and you want to use the methods that Bruce and Ryan mentioned, you would have to modify specific item elimation by Trimming the item number of spaces:
AND(
TRIM({Item #}) >= QUERYSTRING("Enter Starting Item Code"),
TRIM({Item #}) <= QUERYSTRING("Enter Ending Item Code"),
TRIM({Item #})<>"150822205",
TRIM({Item #})<>"150842962"
)
If you want to be able to be able to select any combination of items for any rhyme or reason that is not 'pre-determined', then use Andrew's method to select the desired items in one view, and link them to a second view. The time it takes to multi-select the items will more than be saved in the processing time to do the filtering.
