Saved Searches

If you find yourself repeating the same search over and over again, Notes makes it easy for you to save the criteria, so you don't have to type it in each time.

For example, this blog (which is a Notes application of course) has a view which displays blocked comments.  (why do spammers have to ruin everything?)

If I want to search for certain terms, I can enter them in the search bar, and click Save Search.   I then enter a name for this Search.

Then at any time in the future, instead of typing all the search terms in again, I can choose the Search from the "Load Search" button.

You can have multiple saved searches, so you can create all sorts of shortcuts.
