Using vimgrep to find files NOT containing a string

Hi All,

I generally use:

:vim `beta: ` **/*.md | copen

To traverse my Markdown files to find those containing 'beta: '.

I need to do the opposite but can get the pattern right. I tried

:vim -v `beta: ` **/*.md | copen

thinking that might work but no dice.

I looked through teh vimgrep help but couldn't find anything.

Does anyone know how to do this?

Thank you, 

Russ
