Hi again, nancy,
Follow-up to my previous posting:
- You definitely don't want to enter a record for each note! One record per book (or per chapter in an edited book).
- You can get records from libraries (books), by pressing F4, tick-mark "Internet Search" and select Z39.50 sites on the left. You can select other hosts by clicking the green globe on the left. Select at least library of congress, they have most of the stuff.
Peter.
