o Forms and Reports - Instantly view the record source and sub forms/sub-reports used by them -- with one-click access to each.

o Modules - Instantly see every sub and function contained in your modules -- with one-click access to each of them.

 o Open, run, rename and delete any referenced object from one screen.

o Provides a quick access work area to open up queries and objects using the copy/paste buffer…

 o E.g.  specify "update" and all tables, queries, forms, etc. that contain the text string "update" are instantly displayed.
