copy and paste into search function
 
You did such a great and quick job on my last suggestion, I've got another one. Why is it when I am trying to search (so I don't get told to) I copy the text I need and then open the search function and the box appears, but when I try to paste the info I copied with the right click, the box disappears and I have to manually type the information in? Could it be my browser? I'm using Mozilla, but I don't have that problem anywhere else that I know of. Thanks again for your help.

It seems that that is a problem with how Mozilla/Fire Fox handles the right click on layers. You can avoid having to type in what you have copied and want to paste though. You can left click into the text field for the search either:

1) Go to "Edit" >"Paste".

2) Type: Ctrl+v

And that will paste what you have copied there...
