Our Most Popular PostsTagging Text in a Document (OS X)J | Feb 4 2008I am looking for a method to tag portions of text in a MS word document. I am a law student, and I do a copicious amount of research and note taking. While I have a format to most of my notes and outlines, it would be a boon if I could tag sections of notes within the document. Thus I could later search for not only a keyword but a topic.

The uni has a contract with IBM and would prefer her to buy a winbox. They told her she can "opt out" and purchase a Mac as long as she can justify the purchase. Can the 43f HiveMind give us some ideas on how she can justify the Macbook? She is a sociologist if that helps get your creative juices flowing. POSTED IN:
