When you browse web sites, you can easily store information on the screen - either the whole web page or a selection on it.

• You can store all kinds of web pages, images and Shockwave Flash files.
• The Saved Pages folder allows you to save a page with just one click.
• A convenient toolbar button adds the page to one of the ten most-used folders.
• You can also use drag-and-drop and the right-click context menu to store a page.
• Drag a link to the Inquiry Band to download and save the page automatically.
• Drag a selection with links to download and store all pages linked to the selection.
• You can append the current page contents or a selection on the page to another page.
• Use the Auto Save button to automatically store all pages you browse to a special folder.
• Inquiry keeps all collected information in compressed files saving disk space.

Inquiry lets you organize pages to find information fast.

• Create an unlimited number of folders and subfolders to organize stored pages.
• Mark each item to find it easily.
• Sort pages within folders by URL, Title, Date or manually.
• Add custom comments, keywords and other information to each page.
• Edit pages visually to remove unwanted banners, menus, etc.
• Search within saved pages for keywords.
• View saved pages with a single click.
• Copy, move, delete or rename pages.
• Use icons to mark stored pages.

We do our best to design Inquiry to be comfortable and appealing.

• Click a folder to see its visual representation in the browser.
• Inquiry stores screenshots of each stored page to help you preview the pages on a single screen or when you hover your mouse over them.
• There is a standalone Inquiry application included in case you prefer a browser other than MS Internet Explorer.

Most modern browsers keep all pages you view in their cache. This makes browsing faster and you can sometimes view Web pages offline.

However the default browser cache is limited and inconvenient:

• You cannot tell the browser which pages to keep and which to discard. The disk space you allow for the cache is not used optimally.
• You cannot "freeze" certain pages and when the cache is out of disk space, many pages will be erased automatically.
• If you view some pages frequently, the previous page copy will be overwritten by the new one. So if the page contained valuable information in the past, it will be lost.
• You cannot organize your cache by folders, use full-text search, highlight found words, etc.

File | Save as

MetaProducts Inquiry goes farther than the standard HTML and MHT formats if you want to save a page to disk or share it with a friend. You can save a single page or a set of pages to a variety of file formats. You can backup and restore the saved pages to prevent information loss in case of a system crash or virus.

Edit pages

A Web browser can be used only to display Web pages. Even if a page is being saved in the browser cache, there is no way to edit it, remove banners or add your comments. Inquiry has a fully-featured visual Web page editor that allows you to change the look and contents of the saved pages according to your needs.

Using a familiar Folder Tree, you can create and organize your folders using simple Windows Explorer-type menu commands, and then move your saved pages from one folder to another using drag-and-drop.

Save entire Web sites using Inquiry’s Auto-Save feature. Once AutoSave is enabled, every page you browse will be automatically saved in a special folder called “AutoSave” for later viewing or offline browsing.

You can share the information stored in Inquiry with others.

• Export a page or a whole folder to HTML Help (CHM), MHT, Compressed EXE viewer or a collection of HTML pages.
• Create backup files to keep reserved copies or to transfer information to another computer.
• Extract all images from saved pages to a folder.
• Send a page by E-mail or transfer it to MS Word.
