When you use tabs to open multiple documents it's called a workspace.
With Research-Desk Professional you can:
- Open and save open document individually (using
File, Open
or File, Save)
- You can also save the collection of open documents as a workspace
in a single file. You can therefore, create a workspace for each
thread of activity - for example, a workspace for each project, or a
workspace for each report.
Workspaces not only allow you to maintain multiple threads of activity,
but also allow you to switch between related groups of documents quickly
and easily. A workspace can contain multiple layers, and each
layer can contain multiple documents.
Here's a sample workspace:
Layer1 (Competitive Analysis)
Competitive Matrix.xls (Excel spreadsheet that contains analysis)
www.ford.com/ar (Web page that contains Ford's annual report)
www.gm.com/ar.htm (Web page that contains GM's annual report)
Layer2 (News)
www.wsj.com/ar (Web page that contains today's Wall Street Journal)
www.lemonde.com (Web page containing today's Le Monde newspaper)
WSJStory.zhtml (An old WSJ story web page archived with Research-Desk)
Layer3 (Presentation)
AnnualReport.doc (Word document for editing annual report)
FinancialAnalysis.xls (Excel spreadsheet that contains analysis)
Presentation1.ppt (PowerPoint Presentation)
The entire workspace is self-contained and can be saved for later use or even emailed.
Collaboration on complex tasks is easy because collaborators can email whole workspaces.
That not only eliminates the requirement of emailing each document separately, but
also preserves the organization of the workspace.
