I've come across two different problems with the Search function and since they are not related to one another, I'll post them separately to avoid confusion.
The first problem occurs with the "Find Next/Previous" buttons. Apparently upon the creation of a Search List, there must be an internal pointer to the very first item/person on the Search List. If you have a very large Search List and have clicked on Find Next multiple times but then for some reason your attention is drawn to another person much further down in the Search List and Select that person, the internal pointer remains wherever it was. That may sound like a good design but what happens if you just want to skip several dozen family names or even a hundred or more? For example, if you have stepped through 50 names in a Search List of 500 names, but then wanted to jump to name number 300 in the list (by double clicking it or clicking on it once and clicking on Select). That seems to work well but then you want to continue by going to the next name where you are currently at, namely number 301, you'd think Find Next would get you there. Unfortunately, it does not. Clicking on Find Next will get you all the way back to name number 51. So the big question is if this is how it is supposed to work? I've removed v7.5 from my current computer so I can't check to see if the function has changed.
