In Configure Search Fields, how to ignore a selection from dropdown

[Simong]

A field used to search is from dropdown list which contains something like "- Select -" when nothing is selected. Is it possible to ignore it in the search criteria? 

In the Configure Search Fields page, you can configure to ignore the field in search criteria if it is left blank. Can the same thing be done for a special word?

When you say "ignore in the search criteria" do you mean the DataPage should not produce a result when "-Select-" is selected in the dropdown?

If so, you can make "-Select-" have a blank value in the dropdown. Then, enable Required on the field. See screenshot below.
