No, I have much faster ways to do what you described than to go through all that you listed. My problem is I do this all so quickly that I have to wait for the software sometimes, even on this very fast computer I built.

Hint: I don't use alt-tab, I don't use tab, I don't use ctrl-f, and I don't use Enter to search. I use one hand on the mouse and the other hand on ctrl-c and ctrl-v, and I use a monitor that's large enough to have each window sized to be able to access each of them with the mouse without the need to use alt-tab or any other method to switch between windows. Trust me. This is much quicker than using Saved Searches, which I used for a short time almost three years ago, until I came up with this much faster method.
