A third index lists all 'media' which means entries containing images, sounds or movies. The trail option shows the search results during the current session, allowing easy backtracking. Articles can be printed, copied to the clipboard, and pasted into other applications, such as your word processor for further use. Once installed, an icon is added to the status bar, allowing a quick launch of the CD-Rom. Words can be dropped from a word-processor or Web page on to the search box which can be set to 'float' permanently over currently open applications, providing instant access to these reference titles.
