"The ability to click on an individual in a Show List and go straight to an edit screen is an oft repeated request."
I agree wholeheartedly! The existing Show List display is almost useless. While there are workarounds, as you mention, they still require a great deal of additional effort to get into a usable maintenance mode. Even if the Show List is changed so that the names are clickable, it would still require a whole lot of clicking if there are more than a few items in the list. I'd like to propose that the existing Show List display window be replaced when the result is a list of individuals. Then when a user clicks on the Show List button, it should respond as if the user had instead clicked on Search, Detailed Search, Create List with the appropriate criteria entered. That would open a Search List with all of the items already in an easily usable maintenance mode without having to click on each person in the list. It would seem that this should not be too difficult to do, since the logic to produce that Search List display already exists, but then what do I know? Just a suggestion!

Tag the location(s) concerned and either in the Master Location List go to Options > Print > Location Report OR from main views go to Reports > Other - Location Report. Choose your options and print or preview the list. The ability to click on an individual in a Show List and go straight to an edit screen is an oft repeated request. The current workaround is to tag the list of people on an unused tag and then either open that tagged group in the Name List OR cycle through the tagged group using the tag arrows at the bottom left of screen.
