PS-- I used Excel to process the thread titles and URLs for our index, so it would alphabetize them for me.

And for forum searchers, it's great if the person searching has a fast connection and a fast computer with good memory resources. I also saved copies of my searches so that if I had to quit at any point I could get back to the list I was combing through, or share the list with another searcher so they would know what was covered. We did a lot of the prep stuff in e-mail so project members could stay connected to who was doing what, and how, and to maximize our pre-posting edit capability.
