Bill,

I agree this is a better way. It would be nice to have a drop down
clickable menu, in fact. I'm entering sites of historical eclipse
observations and would like them to be together in a separate file.
There surely must be users who would have some ideas/uses for this
feature. But, unless several others would find uses for the feature,
I don't think it would be worth your time and effort.
