I do not know how to use this tool yet. Just have not had enough time to work every filter. I am sure if you look and follow the Minimizer Filter in the help section it should be very similar to the Fast Minimizer which has no examples or tutorial.

Thanks for your reply, I understand how to use the filter to a point but, I was looking for a little more. Here is what I have found in using this filter.
If you have filtered a full package down to a point and if the jackpot combination is within the remaining combinations along with multiple second prize combinations and you use the Fast Minimizer to filter for a minimum of a second prize, that is most likely what you will get. In the same situation you filter for a minimum of second prize and this time instead of leave you use remove, you have removed some of the second prizes and retained the jackpot combination. The problem is that there are some unseen conditions that must be met. First the combinations that are being filtered must contain the jackpot combinations and multile second prizes. Next, is where do you stop using the remove and use leave? If all of the second prize combinations have been removed the jackpot combination will be removed on the next remove filter pass. If you continue to use the remove with this filter it will remove all combinations completely. If you you use the filter with leave the combinations can not be filtered any more with the Fast Minimizer.
Just say the combinations that you have contain the jackpot combination and you are going to use the Fast Minimizer, depending on the numbers drawn depends on how many second prize combination that there are so, you will not be albe to make a stop point determination based on left over combinations.
