Brian, Just out of interest, why do you suggest a General ToDo? I too use ToDos for this purpose but the Individual ToDo, my reasoning being that I am looking for specific information relating to an individual.
I cannot see a problem with your suggestion - just wondered why that choice.

The alternative is to enter a General To Do to search that source. In the results you can record that no useful information was found.
