not need to be installed onto your computer. The Image
Browser contains other features which you may discover on
your own or by clicking on the "Help" menu in the program.

launch the browser.

the tool bar. In the "Find" dialog box, type a word or words in
the search field (e.g. "railroad", or "mountain") and
click on the "Find" button. To search for more than one word,
choose "More Choices" to add a second "Find" field. Change
the fields to read for a search in "Descriptions" with things
