Just a quick idea: Perhaps you can do a sort on the known string of memo text. Next, as you edit & change categories, also edit the text (perhaps add a star or something in the middle) The search should drop that item then....
You can also look in the unassigned category. As you change fields from unassigned to another category, they will drop out of unassigned. regards, Doug (nb: I am no expert! but there is always a way....)
