Is it possible to export main entries and synonyms based on attribute values?

Question

I am having a tough time trying to do what I want to do. 
 
 In a nutshell, I am trying to create a "universal" termbase that contains all terms, whether preferred, binding, deprecated or whatever. From this termbase, I would like to export everything but the deprecated terms to create a termbase that is useful for translators in Trados Studio (basically to prevent deprecated terms from even appearing in autocomplete). The problem I am having is that synonyms are also being exported regardless of my filter settings. Here is my filter: 
 
 Target->Term status = Binding 
 (and) 
 Target-Approval status = Validated 
 
 The entries with "binding" terms, however, often contain synonyms that have been marked as deprecated and these are being exported as well, which defeats my purpose. 
 
 I have tried amending the filter by adding the following line: 
 (and) 
 Target->Term status !*abc* (doesn't contain) "Deprecated" 
 
 But this isn't working. 
 
 I hope I'm clear enough in what I'm trying to do (if not, I will be glad to provide more information). Is it possible? 
 Thanks for any help!!!

Hello Michael, 
 I think the filter and export functions work on the entry level, i.e. does an entry pass the filter (and is thus exported/displayed) or not. I don't think this works on the level of terms. 
 If I understand you correctly you want to arrive at a list of all terms contained in a termbase that do (or do not) have a certain attribute. 
 One way to do this: Export the Termbase using the "TBX (LISA 2002)" export definition. You will get an XML file which you can open in Excel. 
 Use Excel filters to filter for languages, term attibutes or anything else you wish.
