I always work with a tagged group using the tabs on the right in the Name List. Lot less clicking. Bring the tab forward that you want to work on and just go right down the list, leaving that tab forward. Before working on the next person, make sure the info in the tab changes to that individual'

Cranberry - there is an easier way (I also have been known to scream when getting caught in the tagging merry-go-round) easier: Choose: Name List from the menu Click: search button at bottom of Name list screen Choose: show all tagged on (whatever tag number you chose) On right side: open the sour
