HealthVault give me all height measures greater than 1.7m

One can use the XPath attribute of the filter to do the specific queries on the healthvault search items.

Here is an example, which gives you all the height items greater than 1.7 m :

HealthRecordSearcher searcher = PersonInfo.SelectedRecord.CreateSearcher()
HealthRecordFilter filter = new HealthRecordFilter(typeID);
filter.XPath = "/thing/data-xml/height/value/m[.>=1.7]";
searcher.Filters.Add(filter);
HealthRecordItemCollection items = searcher.GetMatchingItems()[0];

Please note that the XPath tag doesnot support recursive XPath queries.

Easiest way to construct the queries is first find the HealthRecordItem you want to filter, identify its XML via the GetItemXml() and then use that structure to construct your XPath query. The following is the Xml for Height -
