Hi Linda,

If you go to <Tools><Options> under the General Tab in System Configuration you
can check "View History". Each person merged will be added to the bottom of the
View Menu. Read page 289 of the Reference Manual. As long as you merge in small
enough batches, this may help in the future. Sorry I can't think of something
past tense except a report of what has been modified since a certain date.
