 Hi Jef,

 sorry I've not been clear, the problem is that if you want to extend your
 query beyond an existing queried subset, you have to open/close/open/close
 the window.

 ex for a table with 3 names george/bill/bob :
 1. query "name" = 'george'
 2. query "name" = 'george' OR "name" = 'bill', it will return a message
 saying that there no feature 'bill' because the subset created by the
 first query left them out
 3. erase the query
 4. close the window (OK)
 5. open the window, write the 2nd query
 6. close the window

 it would be easier with an 'Apply' button similar to the one used to apply
 symbology changes, getting the same result with half the click
