I take it by "line two" that you are talking about the QBE grid? Can you copy the SQL statement for the query with just one line and also copy the SQL statement when you have both lines of creieria? Across the QBE grid is "AND" Down the rows is "OR" You have to make sure everything from line one is also on line two.
