Do you mean, how do you use the and and or operators?  See -help 
if-.  Examples for the help:

. list make mpg if mpg>25 & mpg<30

This restricts the list to those cases where mileage is greater than 
25 but less than 30.

. list make mpg if mpg>25 | mpg<10

This selects cases where mpg is either greater than 25 or less than 10.
