  3. Double click on Select a search type- for example Any Keyword
  4. Select File > Save All
  5. Select F1 New , give the file a name then F3 Save and F9 Select
  6. A notification will display the number of items in the file

 

Stockitems & Catalogue.

It is possible to search in Stockitem, find items and XReference to Catalogues for the items found in the Query e.g. All Videos. Once the Stockitems are displayed in a table, highlight the items. Once highlighted, choose XReference from the top of the table, and choose Catalogue. It is then possible to save the items to a file.

For example, have a File saved named Bibliography. This can be used each time for Bibliographies, emptying (using Empty [F2]) if necessary.

The File can then be used in Reports/RepBibliographic
