All I have to do is specify the TAGS display option (e.g. d 1-30 tags cont) and then save the output in a text file which I later open with TAGSLINK ( I have only used it a couple of times only, so I do not know how dependable it is yet). If you want to download bibliographical material from the CATALOG in MELVYL (the book section) then you will have to wait until they implement TAGS fields in CAT. In the meantime, you might be able to use the experimental mode (type: set mode exp) where you can now use TAGS fields until they work out all the bugs and move it to the regular mode ( I do not know if it is available from Washington though). I hope this will help you get started. Chris. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Christos Vasilikiotis, Ph.D christos@nature.berkeley.edu Dept. of Plant Biology U. C.
