The Archive Window consists of three menus, two dropdown lists and the contents of the archive itself organized into eight columns.

Menus

Search (ALT+W>S) calls the Search Window.
Settings (ALT+W>E) calls the Settings Window.
Close (ESC or ALT+W>C) closes the Archive Window.

Edit
Edit selected (Double click or ENTER or F2 or ALT+E>E): the user may edit the search settings associated with the highlighted item (see Edit Window).

Copy to clipboard (CTRL+C or ALT+S>C): the user may copy the settings for the highlighted item to the clipboard. The contents of the clipboard can then be pasted into an email (normally CTRL+V) and sent to a colleague.
Import from file (ALT+S>I): the user may import the settings for one or more new search engines, on-line dictionaries, on-line encyclopaedias or local dictionaries from a file previously created using Export All or Export selected above or from an IntelliWebSearch search.ini file (any version).

Dropdown boxes

Add to/Remove from... (ALT+A): the user may add the highlighted item to one of the five available groups.
Rename... (ALT+R): the user may give the five groups meaningful names (Favourites, English, German, French, etc.).

Columns

Pluri indicates whether the item is included in the PluriSearch. Simply click the box to change the state.
Label is the label which appears under the button on the Search Window. To edit the label, use Edit selected above. Clicking the word Label sorts the column contents in alphabetical or reverse alphabetical order alternately. By default the column is sorted in alphabetical order.
Shortcut is the key combination used to bypass the Search Window and send the search string directly to the search engine, on-line dictionary, on-line encyclopaedia or local dictionary concerned. To edit the key combination, use Edit selected above. Clicking the word Shortcut groups the items with shortcut keys together at the bottom or at the top of the archive list alternately.
Group 1...5 indicates which groups an item belongs to. If the user has renamed one or more of the groups (see Rename... above), these columns will show the new names given to them. To add an item to a group or remove it, use Add to/Remove from... above. Clicking the name of a group gathers the items belonging to it together at the bottom or at the top of the archive list alternately.
