To iterate the full wheel you don't need to read the combinations from a file on the disk - you can (the software can) generate them on the fly and pass them to your filter. Thus you will save to disk only the tickets that meet your filter conditions.
Would it be too much to ask for a 'step by step' explanation. Tdnl46w, does any of this make sense to you?
In the “Run” window of the complex filter,...Stan is referring to using a “Full Wheel” instead of what is in the current “Package”. When using this option, I’m guessing it will insert a specified amount of tickets into memory(maybe using the settings in; Tools> Options> Miscellaneous> Execution tab> “Number of tickets to process in memory: [x]”), then check them against the filters, and mark the tickets that passed. The process then repeats for the next tickets inserted into memory. This way the program doesn’t have to check files on a disk or store anything on a disk until the filtering is finished. However, depending on the filers used, the filtering results from a one trillion combination lotto can still be multiple gigabytes or more in size.
