I'm sorry. I had sent the details about Focus groups to here this morning.  
That is the way to 'mass' tag a group. The Focus Groups and To Do Lists are two 
different ways to accompish similar tasks.
I wrongly thought you had seen the 'Focus' stuff, so I showed the 'other way'.

You could just search (detailed) by tag #.

I am working with Germans from Russia.  There is indexing available on line for 
birth, death & marriage records from the 1830's through the 1880's.  When I 
find the name of a parent I go and pick up all the information from the indexes 
for that family and put it into the notes.  Then when I have time, I go back 
and do the data entry and sourcing for the family.  I want to tag just an 
individual not a whole group.  I may have 7 or 8 people I need to find to 
finish their information at a time.  As I work with exit records, parents are 
listed and I try to put the whole family together.  After I tag an individual, 
how then do I find that person quickly again.  The number 1 or 2 or 3 show and 
turn blue but when I click on it nothing happens.  Where do I go to find that 
person with the tag.  Yes, I can go to the name list or Index but I do not 
always remember the name I am looking for.  I am data entering close to a 100 
people a day.  I need to
 fully understand how to tag individuals so I can quickly find them to finish 
them up.
