Sorry, we can't all be 'professionals' like you. MS went to the trouble
to
build Express version for us developers who would rather have UI instead.
Just because you would rather type:

SELECT [name]
FROM sys.procedures
WHERE ( [name] LIKE 'spFNP%'
OR [name] LIKE 'spNGRM%')

... I would prefer to only type 'spFNP;spNGRM' in a textbox, doesn't make
me
less 'professional'. Just more efficient. My time is valuable. I could
write .Net in Notepad too, but would defeat the purpose of Visual Studio.

MS - Please add support for multiple filters in next version for us folks
who want easy way out.

Sorry you feel that way. In fact, most 'professionals' that regularly
work
with SQL Server (and Oracle, etc.) do NOT use the "nice UI" for queries.

The best way to query the database is to know how to query the database
and
not rely upon a GUI.

That would be taking step back toward stone age. What is the point of
nice
UI if not very useful?

Unfortunately, it appears that you cannot.

If you are trying to obtain a list of all stored procedures that have
certain characters in their name, you might try a query like this:

SELECT [name]
FROM sys.procedures
WHERE ( [name] LIKE 'spFNP%'
OR [name] LIKE 'spNGRM%'
)

I am using SQL Server 2005 Express Management Studio. I want to put
in
multiple filters for stored procedure. Example: where sp name
contains
'spFNP or spNGFM'. Is this possible? If so, what is the syntax?

Also, is there a way to save filter between sessions?
