Managing Ibidem Note-Taking Files

[John Hill <j ! hill () ytu ! edu ! au>]

Dear Notabenieri
        When the note-taking file first appeared in Ibidem (several 
incarnations ago of NB), I was able to name the file myself and store 
it where I wished. I used a file called "Revs" (for reviews), and 
used the note-taking file to write summaries and reviews of various 
articles and books whose records I had stored in Ibidem. There was no 
linking feature as there is now in NB8. Now when a note-taking file 
is generated, it is given an indexed name by NB and saved in a 
predetermined folder. What I am looking for is a quick and easy way 
of reorganising earlier note-taking files, so as to use the linking 
feature. Do I have to manually create a new note-taking file (to 
which NB will will assign an indexed name), and then copy the 
contents of my older note-taking files into the newly created one (if 
you know what I mean!!)? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
John
