Thanks, Charani, There are several things I don't understand -- How do you use the History list?? I see no way to enter info in it.
Also when I looked up "History List" in the Help Index, I was told: "To reach the *History* list, click the *small down arrow* between the *Back * and *Frwd* buttons on the left side of the Toolbar." I had no trouble finding the small down arrow to the right of the *Back button/Arrow, *and no trouble accessing the History List,* *but I don't see the *Frwd* button/arrow they referred to. Michele, Can you be more specific bout how you enter searches in your research notes. For example, if you look up 10 different individuals named Smith, do you enter the search you did for each of the ten in each of their individual research notes section? How do you keep track of what you still need to do? .
