working w/ filters

I'm working with a huge file which has tens of UPC codes in them. I'm checking them off one code at a time, so that means after I'm done with one, I dont want it to appear in the list. At the moment the way I'm doing this is in the filters I'm displaying all the codes, then looking thru that long list, and unchecking the one I dont want displayed. That works but is time consuming.

The one I want to remove ends in 111. So if I go to filter and type 111 I see the code I dont want displayed. I wouldve thought I could just uncheck that one and the rest would remain checked, but it doesnt work that way.

if i check all, then manually find 111 and uncheck it, that works fine. that's what ive been doing.
but if i check all, then type 111 in the search, i think they all get automatically unchecked or something. it doesnt work. if you try it you'll see something getting messed up along the way.
