Individual - Surname - starts with - H etc
Then go in to the IGI search and choose to use the tag list (in Filter List)- and then clear search results for the list (Options).
Hope that makes sense and works for you.
I can't imagine doing this with my file. Very few of my family are in the IGI anyway - and those not accurate - perhaps more of the peripherals are - but I see it as such a mixed tool that I would only search one by one or by small family group.
Perhaps this is useful if you are a member of the LDS.
Do note that you can limit the number of results in Options > Search Options.
Cheers, Cathy

I thought Glen had a great idea by setting the IGI Search feature to search the file continuously until it was done, so I did that. After a few hours of retrieving matches, unbeknownst to me my ISP cut me off and signed me out. Meantime, while my computer is offline, IGI Search is faithfully wailing away at the task at hand, finding no matches (of course), dutifully putting zero after zero into the Matches field in the data base.
When I discovered what happened I logged on and asked IGI Search to search again. It recognized it had been down this path before and finished checking Pass 1 without trying to retrieve any further information for those persons who had a zero beside their name. IGI Search believes it has finished the job. I'm only up to the H's, so every name from H to Z has nothing in the Matches field but zeros. Is there no choice but to delete the search results one at a time for each individual with a zero beside the name? -- Alice Legacy User Group Etiquette guidelines can be found at: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp
