RXT,
This also works for any other filtering by field you may be doing (Advanced Find, Search Folders, etc.). When I first applied this filter a while back I was stymied and dogged in my determination to find this "needle in a haystack" and it was just a matter of digging through each and every field group.
While doing this digging, I had repeatedly missed looking it in the "User- defined fields in folder" group during my manual search. This "Active" field is present within the Business Contact Record out of the box and I as the user had never "defined" this field so naturally I repeatedly skipped over looking in this group until it was the only possible place left from my laborious trial and error search. Sure enough, there it was. I knew the darn field was somewhere but it could have been grouped more logically in order to eventually locate it.

Has anyone found a simple work-around?
