Paul and others,Tags are indeed one of the powerful tools when using any 
database.  Whenever I have something that I want to remain tagged, I create a 
Source record to describe that such as your example of knowing which 
individuals for whom you have acquired a will.  Then, I can easily find 
everyone with that source and re-mark them with one of the tags.  In this way, 
I have unlimited tags that can be stored such that certain "sources" become a 
permanent tag.  One that I use often is a source that tells me if an individual 
is a participant in our family DNA project.  Using that source, I can quickly 
re-tag all the DNA participants when I wish to report on them.
One other way that I can "remember" a select group of individuals, is to save a 
focus group and then re-load that focus group to be used for re-tagging that 
group, etc.  
Hope these ideas will help you with your database operations.Ron Taylor
