>In my last post I said that InfoHandler uses a list for keywords. Actually, in terms of the GUI, IH uses up to, I think, 25 or so lists, each list being a group of related keywords. Within a group one can have a further breakdown, ie. a parent key word and daughter keywords. For example I have a group called People. In that group I have a parent category or keyword called Clients. Under the Clients, I have daughter categories, which are the names of individual clients.

In other words, a tree. The tree isn’t just a way of visualizing the structure; it is the structure, because, as above, when you describe the structure, your description is also a definition of a tree.
