How to Search Remote Databases:
 | To access remote databases, go to the Tools
menu and choose Connect, and select the Connect
submenu. Select a Connection file from the list, for example, PubMed, and click Connect. |
| To
search the database, enter keywords in both search fields to narrow down
your retrieved items, and click the Perform Search button. |
| The
retrieved references can be copied to an open library, a closed library or a
new library by selecting the items
and using the Copy References To command. |
| If the connection file is not listed in the submenu, you need to add it
from the Edit menu: Connection Files:
Open Connection Manager, and choose the connection file you want
to use. |
