Is there a way to search the archives?

You can do a SEARCH using a keyword, at the top of this screen.

You should be able to search any page in your browser using the "find" option...... enter ctrl f and a find box should pop up where you enter a search key. So, if you are looking in the Parker Pages index area you can use the ctrl f function to look for something that you think will get you to the topic of interest; which you can then follow the link to the article or volume's issue.

My pfd file viewer tool has the search box Dean talks about but I suspect the ctrl f might work there too?

Robin, if I’m not mistaken, the OP was referring to the archive of the forum on the old website, not the current one.

You are correct, sorry if I added any confusion.:banghead:

Thanks Robin. I'm referring to the archive pages in the old format as shown. Using "Ctrl F", it will search that current page shown on the screen. Example shows where I searched "Trojan". It doesn't search all 152 pages of the Archived Forums as does the current format using the SEARCH tab. Would be nice to be able to do that when researching information on these old posts.
