Lori -

You would just type in the names or subjects you find. You could do it by
scanning, but that's a very slow process.

If you were to use material from a computer file, it can be manipulated
into a comma delimited file, and then imported into Sky, but sometimes
that's more trouble than it's worth. Depends on your typing speed, really.
